What have you done to your P5 today?

Thanks :)

Seriously tho, it's so great now. Stiff, but not too stiff and handles great. I'm thinking I may take out some valving on the fronts, because they're overpowering the springs, and I'm not getting enough suspension travel, so intead of following the contours of the road, it's just bouncing, which sucks for power delivery.

Also, getting an alignment when I get off work to make sure everything is in order. Need to get the tires balanced, but I need new tires soon anyway so I'm just gonna wait to chew through these.

Haha ... Thanks man :) I will say that it's just odd that things like this tend to happen when you already have stuff really piled on. I'm pissed (of course), but I've been exposed to experiences over the last couple days in a hospital I'm doing rotations at that really put things in perspective. Tis but a speedbump (one I don't have time for right now). I'll come back cleaner, meaner ... better.
just curious bro, where did you get the taillights?

Buzzkill. Rear-ended mod. Worse than it looks - creased 1/4 panel, cracked tail light, missaligned hatch, obviously fubar'd bumper. F#*k.

is the exhaust ok?

Not a scratch, that's just the bumper cover shifted.

I just logged on right now 'cause this forum is a good distraction and a way to clear my head (and cheaper than a beer). Unfortunately, my 3 year old started showing signs of a concusion today and frankly I just don't give a damn about the car right now. You guys are always cool, thanks for your concern, I'll check back in a few days.

Hope all is well with your son!
