Default "The Bridge" and Vizage front = :(

Just a warning about "The Bridge" (shopping mall and movies) and those with Vizage fronts. Stock springs too...

Made that overpriced movie even more expensive.

Ouch! Dayum...sorry about that bro. It's fiberglass right? If so, you should be able to fix that no problem. Could've been worse if you had a CF lip.

Yep, it is fiberglass. I'll be going in to see how bad it really is, but I don't think it's that terrible. Made a terrible noise and the look on the parking ticket lady's face was pretty funny, in a "you just have to laugh because there's nothing else to do it's so damn sad" way.

I parked and then almost didn't want to look. I'm just glad it wasn't cracked in half and the whole thing barely hanging off the car. Can't even really tell from some angles...

Oh yeah. That doesn't look bad at all. That should be an easy fix. Like you said, good thing it didn't split in half or a piece completely breaking off. You should be good but I know that horrid feeling when you hear that scraping/cracking noise .

The scraping noise I'm getting used to, heh... sadly enough. I need those fancy lifting shocks where I can press a button to raise it up like a truck when entering or exiting parking lots and structures. You can't sideways enter "The Bridge" due to going down into it and there being a narrow area to pass by the parking ticket booth thing.

daammmn! I work in the building around the corner. Your car must be really low cause I didn't realize it was that bad in that parking lot. Sorry to hear that man, guess I'll never take my car down there.

I think the last time I measured it, it was ~4.5" -but the front lip sticks out as well, so that affects things. If you do take it down there, be very careful.
