Alright heres an example picture of what its suppose to look like:

Now, the driver side, is bent at a 45 degree angle... anyone good with welding? or should I try to heat it up and bend it back straight as I can?

I figured after that I was going to order at ASR Subframe Reienforcement.

Ask andy. No, Idk, I think it did that when it was in the process of moving and the rear subframe got caught onto the trailer. This right here will either make or brake the build.

I think it just broke your build.

Figured if we would of taken our time, I was trying to hurry up because he was in some huge rush and fuck dude. I just wasted $250 of getting it towed and trailered.

get pics of the actual bent one... it's hard to tell what you are looking at as far as rebuild

Wasnt in a rush. I just needed the car gone! Take some pictures. Im sure it can be bent back. Did you have help taking it off the trailer?

Yeah I had 6 of my boys help out. And we just lifted it up and walked it.

In the picture above, think I can just cut that angle out and weld another one on if worse comes to worse as far as me not being able to straighten it out?

Hmmm man I dunno I guess I would try to beat it out but I dont know what that would do. Also you really cant complain when you get a car for free....

Yeah, I think Im going to just let the apartment complex take the car.

Im not complainin about getting the car free. Its just the fact I wasted $200+
You'd be upset also.
