And the cowl hood is just the right combo for it !!!

I'm wating one of those for the X but haven't pulled the trigger - can't sell myself on just a cosmetic piece when I still got "performance" pieces I have to get :)

thanks guys for the compliments. yeah, i don't know what possesed the driver of the vette to merge into my lane. i checked my mirrors, and i thought he went straight b/c i didn't see him. then all of a sudden, my steering goes numb, and I know EXACTLY what happened.

So far, the vehicles that have struck my front tire(s) are (in order of appearance..<hehe>)

1. Acura Integra (Left fender, door, window (front and rear), quarter panel, windshield, rear glass, rear hatch)
2. Acura Integra (took the dust, and the left mirror off)
3. Toyota Corolla (left quarter panel, trunk, bumper, right quarter panel)
4. Mazda Miata (rear bumper, roof, quarter panel)
5. Toyota Corolla (right fender, hood, front bumper)
6. Porsche 911 SC (bumper, rear engine cover)

use your imagination on how the tires came across the vehicles....=)

it's not been pretty...

towcat - yeah, truck has created quite a bit of carnage.

jlayne - yeah, would've been less damage had the top been down. it bent some roof strut.

st - thanks!

kt - it was under $1000 when it was first released...then the price of steel pushed prices thru the roof!
