I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

Some BIG animal/thing hit me tonight...

Post by LilLowEK » July 26, 2003

...so I was cruising home w/ a buddy of mine from the closest city of a night out on the town. We grabed a bite to eat at the local Hooters. Admired the JDMU sticker I slaped above the grill, and rolled out. Jumped in the EK, and went to find a club. Got lost, and tryed to find it 3 times. No luck, so we hit up Walmart.

I then found a clay bar kit, the spray and the bar, so I bought it sence I took my pin stripes off today. Left Walmart, and was on the way home in the EK. BS'n about girls and things at around 70 mph, this HUGE PUFF thing ran out on the road. I didnt bother swirving because it was zig-zag'n all over the road. *Prob to fucking chafe me* Anyways, yea, I hit the thing hard. I was calm, and still am. Sucks ass though.

I pulled over, and everything seems okay motor wise. I let it run for 10 mins, and didn't over heat, and the fans kicked on 3 times. It was to dark to check fluids and for leaks, etc. I did notice a crack in my bumper on the bottom. Not just a scratch/crack. A busted bumper crack.

I'm not pissed, kinda bummed out. The bumper had a little chafage on it already, so this is an excuse to get it fixed for free I guess.

I just ran a car fax on the car today, and there has been no accidents. Not sure if this will mark up as one or not. Hmm.

Anyways, going to look at it better tomarrow, all around. As of now, I only need a bumper. Not sure if I should stick w/ a factory bumper style, or something else.

What do you all think? Oh yea, I plan on coning a 4 wheel alignment out of it sence it went under 2 tires, and it is pulling to the right a tad.

So yea, just a rant, but also. Opinions on the bumper situation? Links, pics????

Thanks.

Jeremy

Ps, no pics of the damage tonight. Might take some tomarrow, time will tell.

WOrd had it that you might have been intersted in that bumper/lip combo. :P

If not, I deff want to check it out asap! Does it have the flake in it? Jawn told me it was the exact paint code I have. I would be so intersted in that. As of the seats, plan on coming up sometime this week/weekend. To hang out a bit in your turf, along w/ get teh seats...and hopefully a bumper cover/lip combo. :D
