(09-14-2010, 09:40 AM)garage So have you hit any unsuspecting trash cans or traffic cones with that new beast of a bumper yet?
Car has been DOA for a bit, so no, but it should be running this weekend to go to the PA GTG. Got to wire up the lights still. Im curious if it will make wind noise, its totally invisible from the driver seat, which is something to remember when parallel parking!
(09-15-2010, 12:16 AM)Captain America How did it like it? those things are though. My buddy hit one in a Toyota SR5 with a Total Chaos front end (so it was pretty high) and one of those things broke the sealed beam headlight! I cant imagine what it would do to the plastic grill, light bezels, and lights themselves....
I think I will wait until I have a skid plate before I personally take on one of those spring loaded traffic posts! Whacking that thin piece of metal that covers the bottom of the radiator was the cause of a cracked plastic radiator bottom on my wagon. Its pretty exposed down there
