Thumbs up Project in progress... G37s from Kuwait

Hey guys, i recently had a horrible accident "unfortunately" hit a speed bump driving about 60~65mph they were 2 in a row and i couldn't see any until they were like 10 feet away cuz they were newly done or something so ever since people been telling me i should sell the car and forget bout it but i guess the G runs in my blood now lol so i decided to rebuild it and even modify it even more. so I'll be posting pictures of the car as we progress through the build till it's done tuned and running smooth ^^ G for life~

Here are some pictures i took before the accident > @ the accident and till this very moment, enjoy..

These 3 pictures were taken the day before the accident..

Anyway we took it apart and fixed the chassis it's now straight and back to factory specs. all we got left is change floor panels and put it back together.

This is AWESOME! This reminds me of the Fast & Furious when the tow truck pulled up with a busted Supra and they brought it back. Keep us updated.

Yeah =/ when i hit the 1st speed bump the front wheel landed on the 2nd one i guess and it broke almost all the spokes whole weight was transferred to the front right end of the car and it slipped hit the sidewalk and then a huge piece of concrete then down on the road again and ended up spinning and finally hitting the opposite sidewalk to stop... was ugly

lol dude... that was not a speed "bump" trust me that's in dubai it's smooth you can tell cuz the Lambo still has a nose lol in kuwait if a lambo hits a speed bump @40mph rather than 90mph it will become a crushed soda can lmao

This is how speed bumps look like in dubai http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Dc8q8nuzrH.../mcdshaker.jpg

this is how they look in kuwait lmao, about this big and made out of pavement... probably a lil bigger too atleast the one i hit was.. https://www.chuckhansen.com/wp-conte...ump_street.jpg
