Watch out for those curbs....I ended up hitting one last weekend and ended up doing 10K+ worth of damage, front airbag/ passenger upper side airbags were deployed.

My entire front end suspension from the frame down has to be replaced, new wheels, some back suspension problems, and minor fender repair...also 3 grand in airbags alone isn't too cheap either.

Those curbs can really mess up your under-carriage, especially at a high speed.

IDK..that's not really funny and I wouldn't throw it off lightly either. You could be looking at suspension or alignment damage. But however you choose to look at it is your prerogative.
