No pics of it, but my girlfriend's XTR front der had the bolt that holds the cable in strip out due to some overzealous tightening at one of our local shops. I didn't realize it until I went to adjust it last night. It now has a water bottle cage bolt (cause it's slighter bigger ya know?) in there instead 
Second most beat up part would probably be my frame, between my hamfisted riding and shuttleing, it's got an urban camo look even tho it's supposed to be brown.

A pair of Hope brake levers from a couple years ago when I went over th bars. This is the reason I leave the lever body loose enought hat it'll rotate in the event of a crash rather than....
oww hows your finger?
I bailed off before my fingers became pretzels.
i don't know how fast I was going but I think it was under 30. I over-jumped this rock garden at a little race and ended up falling down a small cliff (like 5 feet). Surprisingly, that was the only damage that I did. The brake levers must've broken the fall, lol.

That looks like it hurt a bit.
just a little bit.
Not really beat up, just broken.

It would have to be my rear wheel. 7 dents, three flats spots, and one busted spoke currently held to another spoke by electrical tape so it does not flop around. The wheel is still fairly straight and has been in this condition since the national at Snowmass.
All this while I have a brand new hub and almost new rim and spokes sitting here unbuilt

My most beat-up part that I still use woud definitely be my shoes. Broken straps, jimmy rigged buckles that don't release, almost no rubber left.
Second would have been my knee pads. But I got new ones.
