I didn't even catch this for a second, because I would be exactly like millenial GM to put a larger intake on the stock engine, worthless spoiler, and fancy wheels and call it a SS edition. Actually, forget the intake, just put on a bright exhaust tip.

Mitchard posted:Simple Newtonian physics. If you launch the air upwards there will be an equal and opposite reaction pushing the car downwards. They had to install left hand thread screws on that side because the air velocity was backing the screws out. (To the far right you can see a hole where they erroneously installed a regular screw that worked its way out)

I can't hate this. Looks really well done, aside from the "show car" chrome add ons. Wonder what they used for the bed portion? The tailgate actually functions, and the vehicle has been extended, unlike a lot of 'mino conversions.

Putting your motor back together and lost the alternator mount? No problem! just use a ratchet strap! And wheres the best place to hook up that ratchet strap? well on the rusted out hole in the strut tower of course!  Trailer park camaro. Trailer park fixes

This wheel tells a story. I think it's "I'm not good at figuring out where the right side of my car is".

My co-worker's son stacked his Punto, and I went round to help him pull the radio and check for anything worth saving before the scrappies took it. He wanted the ~£30 of fuel left in it, so I did a thing:   The weird border effect is my phone case not being clipped on quite right. I quite liked that he crashed into some armco, you know, stuff designed to allow for a safer, more controlled impact - and it was too high, his main crash structure/front beam slipped under it and the bonnet, left headlight and wing took the whole hit. Kind of defeats the purpose, really. I don't think he was going at all fast, luckily, it didn't set the bags off and he was completely unharmed.

enhance! enhance! Looks like CX to me. e: and just to lay this to rest, the badge is in exactly the spot they put the CX badge on sixth-gen hatches.  This is both a terrible car thing and a good example of the CX badge placement. Oh, and another terrible thing is how many lovely "body kit and altezzzzas" riced hondas I looked through to find this picture

I remember seeing a few drivers in SF a few years back that, after parking, opened their trunk and flipped down an attached cushion to protect their bumpers from parallel parkers. I thought that was a pretty cool idea. edit - like this, basically - http://chariotauto.com/
