Default Dammit! Just did $1,000 damage to my Eclipse!

Ugh! You know that awful sound of your front fascia scraping on one of those concrete wheel stops that they put in parking lots? Well, I pulled into the pizza place last night, and heard that awful scrape. It wasn't any worse than any other time it's happened. And I figured that, once again, it was the 2" plastic guard that sticks down below my car's fascia. I went in and grabbed my pizza and paid, hopped back in the car and pulled out. S-C-R-A-P-E-! But this time it sounded worse than usual. So I get out to check. Sure enough, it was worse. Something had caught on the damn concrete wheel stop, and backing up ripped the passenger side of my front fascia off!! Broke all the little plastic clips that hold it on, and cracked the side of it where it actually bolts on.

Wonderful! A $10 pizza run is gonna cost me $1000 for a new bumper and aint job. Damn I just love it when I have a good weekend. Fricking wheel stops!! Grrrrrrrrrrrr

Thank God my Crossfire is put away for the winter. I would have lost it if it had been my SRT!
