Wow... I ALWAYS back into stalls! Learned my lesson many years ago that replacing a fender is cheaper than a quarter panel!

i already drive the most riced out car at my office, backing in would just be icing on the cake. i used to just park far, but the rest of my org just moved into the building next door, completely filling the parking lot. nowadays i just inch out of the parking spot super slow since everyone drives so damn fast!

Well, my idea of using magnets to keep my car cover from flapping and lifting in the wind was a failure.
So I got some car cover bungie clamps from Griot's Garage and installed them today.

Pretty clever design. I hope they work!

I got to drive my Z a total of once in the past 2 weeks. Had to tuck her in under a car cover because of the snow.

sigh.....

Did another 0-60 run 5.4 secs thought the 30 degree weather would really get it screamin, couldn't hook up, tires spun to much. Then went to the car wash. Drove around enjoying my new exhaust set up. Man it makes it even more fun to drive.

no, i read his update that he got a new pipe welded up for the muffler delete and a baffle to tone it down. so, a step up from the washer mod.

dug it out of 3.5 feet of snow (wind + plows = worse problem) and put it in a freshly plowed spot. Took the snow off the car around the doorframe with my soft gloves to prevent swirl marks from a brush. do I need to worry about a snow brush making swirl marks?
