Aww Mother - @$#%* er ! I crinkled my frt bumper into a parking curb today.
It's so warm out my bumper is so soft it buckled in the center and cracked all the paint so it looks broken....but it isn't.
I will have to see what I can do to hide the crease....Hmmm.

Busted Lip !
Ok, so I busted the freaking front lip again ! Damn parking blocks !
It actually didn't break...it just cracked the paint and this front lip of the Amuse bumper is so flexible I just felt it needed to be covered with something a bit more resistant to stress fractures !
So I came up with some Plasti-Dip Spray on......and I think it worked great....I just sanded the area needed for spraying & then taped everything off.
I put like 3 - 4 coats on and it turned out cool looking !
So now I have a matt-dull-looking black tongue on the bottom of the Lip.....but who cares ?

Anything going on this weekend? I'll be in town Friday/Saturday night.
Message me your number if you would like to get together. I'll let you know when I get into town. Some might see me driving thru DFW haha.

My wonderful room mate apparently came home sometime tonight while I was at work and left all the lights on then left me $560 for rent when he owes $700. Anybody got a shovel I can borrow for when I find his ***?

Thanks you guys.....I might have to do more of this in the future. I can see this saving your front end from chips and whatnot do to AutoX or the Track.
I was thinking of doing the mirrors & door handles.
Bummer for you to have to deal with his incompetence ! I'd look for a new room mate....ASAP.
