It’s been about a month since the accident, and I’ve gradually been able to sort things out
I believe the cause of the spin was lifting off the throttle before the corner and then adding more steering input. This was the result of that steering input combined with the downhill slope and road conditions. Unfortunately, my inability to stop the spin was a matter of driving skill—if I had been able to apply quick counter-steering and get back on the throttle, things might have turned out differently
As for the car’s repair status, I’m planning to use this opportunity to further advance the restoration, and I’m currently scrambling to collect replacement and repair parts. Since this isn’t a car where you can just buy parts at a dealer, times like this are tough—but I can’t complain since it’s my own fault
Rear bumper: Secured a used one since new ones are unavailable
Front lip: Spoon lip is unavailable. Looking for alternatives
Front calipers: Secured new Spoon calipers
Tires: A052s have been ordered
I’m planning to remove the front and rear glass from the body, so I’ll also install the moldings I’ve been collecting at this timing, along with the headlights I restored myself
I’m looking forward to it being clean again, but I truly feel that I must not have accidents. I need to keep my driving within limits that don’t cross this line
