My friends all make fun of me when I pull into a parking space because I never pull all the way up. Im really paranoid about curbing my front bumper. You cant exactly see how close you are to the curb when you pull in, unless you stick your head out the window so I play it safe. My back end is usually farther out than the car next to me, but its worth not hitting the curb.



Anybody else here do the same when you pull into a parking spot?

 

all the time.lol i just the other day had a fail and scratched my home depot lip.

 

Its not just curbs I have to watch out for but also parking lot entrance/exits that dip down then up... those give me the most trouble and I have cracked and repaired my astrel front lip more times then I care to count and only one was to to a parking curb.

 

i go over speed bumps and hills sideways in the Elantra. it's impossible to pull all the way up. it took a lot of learning before getting the habit hahah it's too funny but awesome.

 

my major fail...

 

^ Holy hell! When did that happen? Did you get another Club GTR kit, or get one of the copies floating around?



I'm EXTREMELY careful when I pull into parking lots and go over speed bumps, dips, etc. My kit is a 100% original Club GTR and I do everything in my power to keep it looking in perfect shape. No cracks, dings, or anything.

 

I smashed into a bunch of stuff at stock height with a stock front bumper. Most of it was off roading though.

 

lol I just had flashbacks of that video with you an i think busy squirrel out off roading, he was in a blue accent i believe. He was just killin that poor lil LC

 

"^ Holy hell! When did that happen?" LOL,last summer viz,refiberglassed,painted,and then painted again to match perfectly again.the whole story is in my rebuild thread.

 

I couldnt even begin to tell ya when that happened but I remember the video being posted on the HP boards at least 2 years ago I think.
