heh, its better than me. I got into a fender bender today and these huge lug nuts on this f250 poked holes into my rear bumper. Now I have to get a new vumper and heve it painted. I guess I'll go with a saleen bumper now.

PS- Ya, like the above poster said, alloy bulitts arent too expensive and they are really nice looking IMO.

it was actually thanks to a leaking shock, which i replaced. these colorado roads are ruggid, and not nice on your cars suspension. makes me wonder what else could of gotten bent, rims are pretty tough. anyways, i guess ill keep a lookout in the parts section for someone trustworthy with some nice rims and rubber for meh.
