Well at this point I'm pretty much over it.

Now I'm worried about this happening to my soon to be redone CR front end, not even a clear bra would of protected the lip from this mess.

I suppose that's why you get a daily so you can lower the odds of it happening.

I Hit half a tire in the process of switching lanes due to an old person driving 50 on the 101, needless to say i was VERY pissed my spoon bumper was broken in half but to my relief all i got were some tire marks. I always keep a few bus lengths from the person in front of me so i have time to react in case somethings in the road

I'm not worried about it, I was going to replace the bumper with a CR one when I do the color change anyway. Its just going to look a little rough for the next 4-6 months.

Sorry to hear that. Reminds me of the Rock that went into my hood after only three months of ownership. I couldn't swive when I saw it coming and ended up having to have the majority of the hood refinished

this would be hilarious if it weren't true. I just barely missed a big ass ladder on my 929 a couple years back

I had one of those damn alligators jump out from under the car in front of me and land straight in the middle of my hood shortly after getting the car. Still have the subtle battle scars from the beast!

I feel for ya!
