Just like the title says.  I just lost control of the car on a backroad after dropping off my girlfriend.  Slippery road with leaves plus 1 slab stone wall plus one mint brilliantrot e30 = disaster.  The rear end came around and I almost saved it.  It was about to come back when the tires hit wet pavement instead of leaves and shot me into a 3-4ft slab wall.  Major damage to everything below the bumper.

I'm making this thread because like me, may of you have crashed bad or had a minor fender bender.  Post your best pic or pics and we can have some fun with this while sheading some tears.  Have fun and drive safe!

Will have pics up by end of weekend.

i'm sorry to hear this!
i once had a crash with mine, winter time. done a spin and half and ended up a few 100 meters further down in a field.. although i couldn't be cherry picking; it was winter. i was in 2 meters of snow. no damade to the car, only snow in the exhaust (i got in the snowbank backwards before completing a spin). wish i had pictures to share. my oncle has one. he was passing by, had a big laugh, took a picture and left.... ...

anyways, hopefully you can repair your e30? be happy it can't look half as bad as my one when i bought it

Sorry to hear.  I guess better it happened after dropping off your girlfriend than before.  I had someone back out of a parking space and hit my 94 325is.  That was a 1 grand hit to repair.  Not my fault, but I was sad nonetheless.  I haven't wrecked either of the E30s yet, although someone very nearly (as in 10 inches or so) sideswiped my 318i in a roundabout when he changed lanes without looking.  That was 2 months after I repainted the whole car -- Id'a been pissed!

Bummer!  I wrecked mine in similar circumstances (winter, frozen roadway, almost saved) a couple years ago and took out my front bumper, valance, fender, & hood.  Had to rebuild her all myself. I think I've got some pics at home if I can remember to come add them later.

I wrecked my first e30 after getting fired from a job. It was completely my fault and i ended up pulling the core about 6 inches out with a tree and a come along. Replaced the front valance, bumper and hood. I am pretty sure 98% of people wreck there first car.

I have owned my car since Feb 12th, 1999.
I got it with just under 100k, it now has 266k.
It has been a great car.

Never trust a single word a woman says. In 5 minutes she'll change her mind. Unless she's drunk. :D
