Living the High Life
So about a year and a half ago I had decided to drive my XJ back home after a LONG night of drinking...turned out to not be a great idea, who would have thought 
. I had rolled it and landed upside down on a guard rail and after a year of work I was able to bring the ole girl back to life! This thread is going to be about the hard work and life of fixing mistakes and how to turn those mistakes into great sucess as I will be adding pictures and comments of how everything is going when I add new lift, tint, custom bumpers...etc

Sportrider - I learned a very valueable lesson and hope to teach everyone from my mistake that it's not worth it by any means
Mithuth - I didn't get any pictures of the wreck because I was in handcuff in a cop cruiser but the last two pictures are what it looks like now. I have more pictures that I'm going to add later of other small things I've done since but am in class right now.

I hope that was a sobering experience for you and anyone else who thinks they'll be fine to drive home. I'm just glad it didnt come at the cost of someones life.
Good job on the rebuild though.

I looked back at my speaker bar and decide I was tired of trying to keep the cloth from falling down so I tore it off and this was the result.
