The long road ahead

It seems as though I have a problem with curbs and skylines..
Some might remember that last year I wrecked my GTS-T pretty good after hitting a curb while it was raining. Well situation was a little different but results are pretty much the same. I'm sad to say that a couple days ago I wrecked my GTR. The good news is that it can be fixed. As I was turning onto a major road at night something went wrong. I was doing about 60k made it onto the next road when BLAM! front right tire blew. I hit the median and then spun around and went up on the side walk on the other side. I blame the poor dry rotted Nittos
I parked the car down a dirt road and came back the next day to check out the damage. Driver side....front fender, windshield, and door needs to be replaced. Back fender has some scrapes and a small dent. Edge of the roof has some scrapes. Need a new bumper. Oh yeah and 3 of my rims are shot to hell. I havent checked out the under carrage but I'm sure that there is some suspension work needed. On top of some other shit going on at work this has turned out to be one hell of a week.
But I will rebuild, re-paint and turn this into something good. I'll have to take some pics of this its a little disturbing for some. Keep yas posted!!

Sorry to hear about that.

Will insurance pick this up, or is it going to be out of pocket? Like you said, make a positive out of it. Give you a chance to do something different.

I hope you can post some pics. We might have some ideas to help.

Good luck.
