hahah thanxs buddy.. well looks like the adjuster is coming 2morrow... Looks like It might be cheaper to pay out of pocket. The coil was the major issue.
the front lip is cracked but in one piece.
bumper had a 1 inch gap from fender on both sides.
both fenders might get resprayed.
1 new coilover (im gonna call K-sport and see if I can get this under warranty) Its the SAME fucking coilover that blew on me...so im playing the "previous damage" card.
New winshield
im working out a solid estimate tomorrow.

i still cant get over that coilover snapping in half like that, it was quite a site. hope you can get everything taken care of as cheap and quickly as possible. |

good news.. heres my reply from Ksport
wow, i have never seen that before. looks like the dip or pothole caused lateral force against the shock causing that to happen, looks like the shock was bent foward.
Ill go ahead and send you out a new shock, ill send you two so you can replace both of the fronts just in case they both hit potholes and possibly weakened the other one. Honestly this is extremely rare with our brand as we use a 1mm thicker shock body than other brands where this happens more often. Usually this is not covered under warranty since you are out of the warranty period, but ill send two of them free of charge, if you have any other questions just let me know.
and please send your address and phone number so i can ship them out tomorrow.
Thanks,
Nick J.

thats what I thought..but honstly..Ive had ZERO problems with the other 3.. I think when the coil blew the 1st time it caused structural damage. I did a search on the net to see if this was common with k-sports and found almost zero threads.. but fuck it...2 new coils...w00t |
