Cracked Body Kit


so i went driving yesterday with my gf and we decided to go hiking at our normal hiking spot. well apparently they added some God-aweful speed bumps since we were last there. well i made it over the bumps the first time easy enough... but i wasnt so lucky on the return home. i went over it very slowly and heard a loud bang and a dragging noise... not good. i got out of my car and saw half of my rear bumper dragging the ground... so much for my black widow body kit. i could just order a new rear but i decided to trash the fiberglass kit and go with a urethane Saleen 2000 model kit. looks good and not as low... i still feel sick to my stomach about my black widow kit though

something similar made me trash my old kit..(wasnt my fault) some fag tried getting in my lane and he was gunna hit me and i couldnt hit the brakes cuz somone was behind me, so i had to swerve to the side and hit the median and cracked my front bumper
but i just trashed the kit, i tried selling it for a year and no luck. but i kept the stock kit on after.
after that i was done with body kits. i already had to pay $200 to get it fixed one time

wow... i dont have my stock bumpers anymore.. they were already trashed when i got my body kit (part of the reason i bought it). i figure i could replace with stock bumpers or just buy another body kit... so im setteling for the Saleen 2000 style urethane kit... urethans is soo much more reliable than fiberglass... plus im getting a black widow hood and a xenon spoiler with the deal.
