    Ahhhh, gotcha! I'd try a valve stem off a bike tube and a bicycle pump to pressurize it then. Not sure how much flow you'd get from that or how much pressure these cans can hold.

    Damn! Good thing I don't run dust shields. Looks like it still holds air though. Still a good spare. Just have to find another wheel

    Still holds air. Have a full size spare but it's not powder coated to match. All suspension components look fine. I'm thinking new wheel(s), new fender and flare, and paint on door. Calling insurance this afternoon

    Could certainly be worse. Looks worse in person but besides a wheel and fender plus some door paint, I should be good. Still going through insurance as it's worth it to make sure it gets back to where it was

    I'm picking up a fender and flare from a buddy this week for $60. Problem is finding a color matched one, my color isn't the most common one out there. Most of the inner mounts are all ripped out and moved so I'd rather hand it over to the professionals to make sure it's done correctly. I want a good paint job with color blending and I know that won't be cheap. I pay for insurance, I have a low deductible and as of now, I think it'll be worth it. The claims been filed but I haven't actually heard anything and probably won't for a few days. If it looks like my rates will increase dramatically, I'll pay out of pocket but my dad is helping me out on this one since it wasn't my fault. I wasn't the one driving and I was in no way involved.

    I'm sure it'll work itself out, I'm just waiting to hear from insurance. I don't drive it Monday-Thursday so it's just going to sit anyways.
