Default Just got my S back -- shredded front spoiler

Last Thursday night I went to the supermarket and, in a very dark area, ran my (optional) front spoiler into a dark curb. Tore better than half of it off. $574 for a new one installed. Groan. At least it came painted black, so I saved on that.

Now you tell me. Oh well, I guess I should have consulted with the board first.

Sorry to hear George. I don't think I have any paint left on the underside of my spoiler.

Me too. I've been fortunate that any time I bump one, it only scrapes the underneath where it isn't visible.
