Yeah i feel ur pain. I have a really tricky driveway, and u gotta maneuver really carefully. Well i got to close and there was a rock sticking out, tore a hole in the side of the kit. I've also run over the sidewalk at my job. And when u do it, its LOUD...everyone looks.

I was thinking of putting a lip kit and lowering my '94 ST, but I use an underground parking garage with a very steep entrance, after viewing these posts, Iprobably will just get side skirts and lower it. Only thing I don't want to get skirts that are too low, then it looks strange compare to the fornt and rear.

yep, i actually have to drive on the grass at my apt cuz the driveway is so bad... im thinkin if they see me tearin up they're pretty lawn, the landlord will fix the driveway-- hasnt happened yet thouh... and yeah, the loud thing and everyone looks... well, wouldnt ya know, they are doing a mountain bike school for police officers from around NY at my school/work, and when i hit it, all these hotty po-po's are out there, so they all look, and all i can think is please dont notice how illegal my car is! |

haha, you eventually learn, though ive seen plenty of cars with body kits with the fronts all chipped and torn.
paid $3000 for paint job and front bumper, I go cruising around at 90+ mph I get rock chips all over the fiberglass bumper, I go back in and complain have to pay another $150 to put on another coat. K so i still go cruising like a bat out of hell, get more rock chips, scrap the body kit several times. Again go back to the body shop pay another $200 to fix everything. So now its been 4 months and havent had anything bad happen, Think Ive learned. I drive really slow now, under 60 always and always looking for steep inclines and potholes. |
