Well, this was fun.
Stopped at a local restaurant for dinner, a few blocks from home, and as I'm backing into the parking spot, this happens. Guess the upper bolt on the lower strut mount tab decided to give up.

Anyways, no one was hurt, the fender didn't get crunched, dinner was good, and there was a guy with a tow truck there who got the car home for the cost of his dinner. Overall, this potentially horrible situation went about as smooth as it could've. Gonna replace both front brake lines, all four lower strut bolts, and get the parking brake fixed in the back, while I'm at it.
I genuinely can't feel too bad about this, no one got hurt and it's a car that cost me $600 in 2024. I'm still ahead of the game.
