Man you are lucky it wasn't worse. I hydroplaned on a freeway onramp once and crossed into the left hand lane straight under the last axle tire of a dual trailer 18 wheeler. It bounced me off and I did a 360 and stopped dead on the shoulder to the right like I meant to do it. Shattered my windshield and broke my A-pillar. Talk about lucky!!
Yeah, I'm just kinda kicking myself in the ass for not putting on my new intake manifold that I have ready to go just sitting in my basement........ Sad thing is, we were just talking a little bit ago in the Michigan section about having an install meet too...........

Well today my P5, unlike most of them (it seems), is doing just fine. Actually, even better. I gave her a wash between 11pm and 1am and 6 and 6:30am, oh and I did a little polishing under the hood and finally torqued down the bolts on my front driver side strut, no more noises!
Now I need to figure out why my driver side headlight suddenly decided that it was a good idea to get a ridiculous amount of condensation in it. From the way it felt, I think my hid bulb wasn't clamped down as tight as it should have been. It's all fixed as of now, but the condensation is still there. I removed the high beam bulb hoping that it will air dry or something, but yeah I bet it'll just get worse since it is very hot and humid today. I don't have time to take off my front bumper to remove the headlight and dry it out today, I have to drive 9 hours to NH after work bah!

Its cause he still has those door gards on. LOL
Haha...don't think it makes much difference with a lowered car anyway. There is a small rub mark on the left side door guard though. Was there when I purchased the car. Other than all of my mods, the car looks exactly the same as when I first layed eyes on her, errr...even better with my cleaning skills.

Both of you have very clean and BEAUTIFUL cars....two good reasons I would buy sunlight silver.
Josh, how do you drive it only 8 miles a day and stay sane? I have had mine for 7 months and put a little over 7k on the odometer. No regrets though.
