    how fucked is it?
    chassis bent?
    from that picture it looks like the left hand side has dropped.

    Ahhhh that sucks man!

    Only metal though, could always be worse. At least you have the skills to fix it and make it better than ever

    Ah shit man! Gutted for you.

    At least your ok though that's the main thing. Hope it's not too costly to have it all sorted. No doubt you'll do it to just as high a standard as your build.

    Good luck with it mate
