hello, mr.alcheng! :tup:

yah, where i live has no importance. :D im usually in IA, IL, IN, MI, Ontario (canada).

We had our big monthly meet yesterday so I took my time and washed my car as well as put on my nice V2 bumper:

Went to pickup my friend from his house and the street he lives on was really, really bad but didn't see how bad until I went through it and ruined my bumper:

I will be calling the city he lives in tomorrow and insisting that they pay for the damages since it was their fault for not smoothing out the street after recent repaving.

LOL, I feel your pain

Ouch.

I am beginning to think that Mr. Kenchan's evasiveness about where he lives and whether he is truly Asian or not may be due to something related to the Witnesss Protection Program. Food for thought. :icon17:

Damn Wais that sucks

:iagree:

You never know what is on the other side of the net.....

jkjk

much respect to Mr.kenchan


BTW, I drive my Z to work today!! Complete Dry Road, 4C, Sunny, Can't hold my horse!!!!

Holy, I feel like in Z Heaven!!! :tup: :tup:

waizzz- oh crap. :( sorry to see this. definitely make a claim. but i would probably talk to my insurance guy first giving him a copy of the invoice for the bumper and paint... and have them take care with the village claim.

no im on the run. :eekdance: :icon17:

I haven't put bumper on in six months and that happens an hour later :owned:


I will call them tomorrow and see what they say.

Should be about $450 max for a repaint, it's been three years since I had that bumper so it was time anyway.

That was going to be my second guess.

dang...

so you have your factory bumper with the canard you can use in the mean time? :)

The OEM bumper is already back on the car, no canards though.

I normally have the OEM bumper on the car and put on my V2 for meets/events if time permits.

Good luck with that claim. Lowered car with non-stock bumper.

I'm not trying to be a smart arse, because I'm in the same boat since lowering my car and putting on a Nismo nose. I scrape the nose every day pulling out the driveway. The City is going through the neighborhood now resurfacing streets. If they raise mine anymore, I won't be able to get out.

I've already broken two retaining screws in the fender well. We installed a ramp/grate becuase everyone was scraping leaving the driveway. I'm still scraping. it's a function of the pitch of the driveway in relation to the street.

Love the look, so I'll live with the consequences. I hope all works out for you, so keep us posted.

hahaha. yah, wanted dead or deep fried. :icon17:
