I just had a rubber mat fly up and hit mine in the face. It looked really bad at first but all the rubber scuffs came off. Now it just has a slightly bent mesh and the bar that holds the intercooler sprayer nozzles is bent a little. The trucking company will pay for it if it actually fell off their truck, hope you got the truck number. I didn't get anything cause it was not a part of the truck that hit my car, just something that the truck ran over and got airborn.



On a better note I ordered the AMS brake duct kit on Monday afternoon and it showed up yesterday. Those guys are on the ball. I was kinda worried about the 3000' long straight at Grattan, but I shouldn't have to worry now.

Haha, my brake duct kit should deliver today! Is the front straight at Grattan really 3000'? I haven't even looked at it yet, I've got Putnam to worry about first. Carter, you do have the worst luck....

Yeah that thing really is 3000' long. I was looking for top speeds there and I saw the MI staties had their patrol cars up there to test top speed. Those total POS V6 Impalas got up to 138 and the 5.7 liter chargers got up to 149 mph. I am afraid to imagine how fast we will be travelling.

Did you find a buyer for the car? Or just getting it ready to sell.

Go to Uhaul or some other similar place. They have big boxes cheap that work perfect. I've sent out 2 or 3 sets of wheels using them. They have to be trimmed a little but they fit and are like $1 each.
