And there was alittle traffic hold up becasue of this. Gapers bottleneck. BUt the question of the day is what did he hit? It was the only car involved and there is nothing around for miles. No Cement medians, no cows, no underpasses, nothing but tumbleweeds and rusty old fences.

Is your front bumper busted? I was thinking about driving down with no hood as well to pick up a new CF hood...still weary about that idea.

Hey I've stopped at that gas station before. Its was humid as hell out there. Now questions.
1.Did you notice any extra HP gains of the free airflow?
2.Whats the deal with your bumper?
3.And whats the difference with this new CF hood vs your old one.
4.Finally, how many weird looks did you get?

1. Yes, I got very little respose and hp gains. But very very small. Hard to determine because the air outside was probably the same temp as my engine bay LOL.
2. it was messed up by a parking median.
3. My old one had cf skeleton which i could do without. I traded a cracked front to one with one big crack in the middle of the hood. very hard to find a cf hood without any cracks in the clearcoat ::shrug::
4. Lots and Lots of wierd looks. but they were gone after i open my throttle WOT to suck all that humid mid-cal air in.

Brian is always hitting or running things over in parking lots, last time he "claimed" he was staring at some girls ass. [;)] [cool]
Oh you should cross-post these pictures on the b5 forum Brian. For those non-southwestern poeple who requested pictures of your adventures.

Oh boy....I think his next car should have front and rear parking control sensors. Wala! No more FUBAR'ed bumpers! [:p]

i use my bumpers like they should be used. As a plow device for pedestrians and road signs...
The parkingmedian actually grabbed the underside of my bumper and pulled it out as i was backing out.
