Re: Mx-3 a bumber car?

gmuff... My friend driving my car hit a deer last night, and the left side of my hood looks almost identical. I can truly say "I feel your pain." I may be taking this opportunity, however to get a Carbon Fiber hood, if the body shop wants too much to fix it. Where did you price a hood @ 20...

Re: Finally getting somewhere on the CF hood project

I already had a little hood damage from the previous owner, but last night, My friend was driving my baby and we hit a deer. It's not too bad, but one side of the hood is bent up about 1cm on the driver side, and the paint is cracked where we hit the deer. With that, and the front of the hood needin...

Squeaks?

I dunno what other folder to post this under, but when I hit any size bump, I hear a squeak from the back of the car. After searching around with a friend driving, I think it's coming from the third brake light housing. I tried tightening that up, but I still hear squeaking. Anyone have this problem...
