    Re: ouch! the nose!!!

    If its not that visible and you're not phobic about wear and tear then put it down as such and leave it as is. If the jolt was really bad I would check and make sure the wheel isn't damaged and that the steering etc is as it was prior to the car hitting the swine hole. Remember that the mind plays strange games when you're in recall territory.

    If you fix it, you'll just hurt your heart the next time you do it. And you will. There are many driveway lips that I find a real problem.
