bad bad bad. I was fortunate enough to never have any consequences, and changed my habits after seeing friends run into problems with drinking and driving. A cab ride REALLY isn't as bad as it sounds... I guess that's the beautiful thing about being in a bigger city, cabs are easy to flag down, you always know someone living in a nearby apartment, and there's plenty of late night after hours spots to eat something and hang out for a couple hours.

Don't want to sound like anyone's parent, or throw stones... but really consider how it could have changed your life. Glad the car sustained only light damage and you're ok.

Can't wait to see the new bumper and lip! Bring it to one of the portland meets sometime.

i thought about it for a fleeting second... but i would have had to replace the headlights and other things, apparently. plus, after looking around a bit, i kind of think i prefer the look of the AP1 front WITH a lip... versus just an ap2 front with no lip. i wouldn't have had the extra money to spend on a lip if i'd have done the conversion.

hrmm.. I had the AP2 front bumper cover, and you dont have to change your headlights..just a little bumper support shaving if you dont want the "dimples" to show.

well the Amuse lip on red is HOT! Just make sure it fits right/good quality before you paint and mount

good luck!

i'm not an asshole... but you deserved this. some people aren't that lucky to come out of driving under the influence with a damaged car. never drink and drive again.
