Ouch man! That's horrible, I'd be so upset. The stupid roads around here are what caused me to blow my front passenger Bilstein 
The roads up here suck D haha. Good luck with your wheels though man!

Yea, I almost got pulled over by the cops ( they pulled up next to me at a stop light ) and asked "Sir have you been drinking, you were swearving all over the road back there." and I said " No sir, I was just dodging all of the pot holes back there.." and they just laughed and said ok, be careful out there.

Insurance is giving me $1700 and change for the damage. The rims are being repaired for $180 right now and I'm taking them to be low temperature powder coated solid black tomorrow morning. Powder coating will cost $60 per rim. Unmounting cost $40 for all 4. Mounting and balancing will cost about $120 (Road Force)
Total repair cost = $580 (unless there's something wrong with the linkage and such. I'll find out in the next day or two.
I never really liked the red lip actually. I originally wanted just flat black TE37s to hide the break dust, but these were all I could find. Oh well, maybe it's all working out in the end.
A police report would show up on Carfax just like an insurance claim. I've ran lots of Carfax reports lately for a buddy of mine that's trying to get an Evo. Lots of them have police reports listed in their report.
Star Specs showed up today. I should be back to good in about a week.
