How much would an estimate be of a new one?

my mate threw his at a gutter broke the pan hard rod, pandhard rod mount was wrecked two rims, one tyre, radious rod, ball joint and needed an aligment and he hit it harrddd like 40km sideways the car jumped off the ground when it hit
about 1300 in all damage but we fixed it for around $500-$600
i think my the rod thing is what im talking about
cant get the right name...
i think its a little bent? could i find a replace ment at the wreckers?
yea its not worth trying to drift, especially in these cars, im not expert driver but i found out the hard way that these cars dont drift very well if not at all. Occasionally ill give it a bit of a flick, but not more!

Speaking of going sideways, Middleborough Road freeway onramp corner yesterday + rain + visible oil slick + 80kmph + NO throttle = holy **** I was NOT expecting that! I was ****ting myself trying not to let the commodore over-correct itself, meanwhile my girlfriend didn't even CARE that we were at a 90 degree angle to the road... she thought I meant to do it! lmao
But You're probably looking in the vacinity of $300 all up to fix it if you're lucky. If you can find a wreckers that fit and install, that would be the place to go. But yeah... If you try and drift anything on public roads you're going to ***k it up sooner or later. Even pros get it crossed up all the time. Just be glad you didn't hit another car, or a person.
Cheers.
