well, a critter in the road took out my greddy lip and front splitter last night. was more like an explosion of the front end, and now on top of it i am left with the smell of burnt hair and general dead animal soup all under my car. i set the front up to be replaceable, and it did separate at the right spot so i just need a new lip. the down force lost is VERY noticeable
curious to see if anyone local has anything cool. would be open to just getting a new front spoiler, or might just get a whole new front bumper also. let me know what ya got!

I had 2 greddy front lips back in the day...they both busted in the same spot, just shy of the right fake inlet. A c-west front lip would look sick w/ your setup with the center kept carbon...

ya, i knew they broke right at those spots, i even went through and really reinforced it in those areas to help it from cracking. at 130mph though, it would of needed to be made of steel and welded to the frame, lol. didn't even see it, just a quick snap and then the sound of dragging parts that i quickly scubbed off witha few turns of the steering wheel. luckily, there is only a couple supperficial scratches outside of the greddy lip outline. i could get another and paint it and be good, but might change things up abit.
That almost happend to me, I was driving on a somewhat windy road and this squirrel pops out of no where and just stares at my car....
I actually saw one squirrel that would sit on the fence and look for a clear crossing then cross, that's a smart little rodent.

i will post some up. don't really want to go and look at it right now
i did see a bunch of fur and other pelt like debris under the car and it swirled up with blood and fur on my rear bumper 
effed that little dude up, whatever it was
for those who havn't seen how low my car is, there was only about 2" of clearance. i knew it was bound to happen, surprised it took almost a year!
