    Depends on wher you committed the crime (as in state and country) and your ability to provide immediate restitution to the victims of your crime..

    Have you already paid for the damages, and/or do you have 8000 to pay for the damages to be fixed.

    Is this someone's car that you know, that would testify that you should not go to jail.

    Some jail is very possible, esp if you have not paid back all the damages.

    It is up to the judge, you need to have an attorney
