This is actually the second time where another driver hit me from the side... guess I need to buy a brighter color next time I buy a car so people can see me when I'm driving

Stupid work schedule anyway... My DD is an Airbus 320...

41 miles... That's less than what I drive TO work every day.

I picked up some bolts, washers, and nuts to help me mount the spats. The fitment was not perfect, and VHB did nothing to help, so I figure bolting them to my bumper will work. Sadly, I could not find black button head bolts, so I went with black socket heads. Hopefully it won't look too bad.

Do you rent Corvettes? I wanted to rent a Corvette when my car was in the shop. It was way too expensive, even with insurance covering the majority.

I travel for my work and rent a car every week. It is usually a Maxima or Altima. Winter time, I get a 4X4 like a Suburban. Have you ever done donuts, and I mean full multiple 360's, in a Suburban in the snow (on a private company driveway -- not a public road)? It's a blast.
Ghostvette and aszyd like this.

I've never done donuts in anything! Y rated tires are too expensive.

In that case either rent a rear wheel drive car or do them right before you change tires!

TBH, there are no really good, close places to go hoon my car. I live about 5 minutes away from a police station, and no empty lots close by. As my wife stated tonight, my car is "obnoxiously loud," so it attracts attention very easily.

Sorry to hear about this.
