HELP~~! ran over a tire on highway..
 
can i say f**k!!!!!

damn stupid A** highways....

I ran over a ripped tire driving 70mph on Garden state parkway...
the headlights for our cars suck... the beems distance is too short....

whatever.... the ripped tire was right in the middle of the road...

I put some pictures up....

I'm new to the car so.... just need some help if you can see anything else but
the body i shoud be worried about...

the car seems to run fine...
no engine lights....

the AC/heat is kinda weird...
AC works but.....it takes a while to change from heat to AC...

it might be just me but.....
I kinda hear more air sucking sound then before...
sounds kinda like having an intake on...

taking it over to mazda tomorrow...
do they charge to inspect it??

is there anyway....i can get any warranty...
It's my fault....not really but....
so this might have been a stupid question....
but....its hard enough to feed my 8....

anywayz.....pour some knowledge on me...plz~~~~~
i'd be relaxed if the bumper is my only concern...

tell me if you can't see the pics....

i would say a good bet is, if you cant see the pics, neither can we

check the condenser tray ... seems to be the only thing other than the bumper and condenser which you say you have already checked, that you would need to worry about

other than that, i would rethink your posting style

UFGator12 04-24-2006 09:55 PM

No, Mazda should not charge to inspect it. But, I don't see pictures.

A pretty good rule of thumb is don't outdrive your headlights. If you don't have time to react to something as your headlights illuminate it, you're driving to fast, or not paying attention. Take your pick, but don't blame the car.

krangorx8 04-24-2006 11:20 PM

I always thought the headlights Illuminated great. Sorry about the bumper.

metalic8 04-24-2006 11:23 PM

I'm not blaming the car...
i love her....that's why it hurts so much...

everybody does more then 70 on 65mph zone...
well...people drive over 80mph on Garden state pkwy.


I was cruising in 70....switched lanes and.......I see the thing...
next... i feel the thing....

first.....damage on the car.... ...really hurts.....

Raptor2k 04-24-2006 11:26 PM

Get over it. It's just a lip that is easily replaceable. Got insurance?


or should I say...
get over it...
it's just the lip...
easily replaceable...

I could've sworn you were writing poetry.

Wurmfist 04-25-2006 08:55 AM

First things first
Why do you thirst?
We have lots of poets
and I don't think they know its

Get your car fixed
and buy racing beat stainless steel covers
to protect your investment
90 dollars will save the day
and will keep you from having to pay pay pay
for new air conditioning and cooling gear.


Yeah...i can't ryme. Neither can I spell. peace out yo!

Added: You may have damaged your VFAD, which would cause your intake to be louder than normal if it's not working.
