Default Big Changes!

So I decided to do some cosmetic mods to my car, figured I'd share them with y'all...









The lady in front of me rear-ended a pickup while I was looking over my shoulder so I rear-ended her Tahoe. She broke a hitch cover on the pickup and I scuffed up her bumper and receiver hitch. Anyway, insurance estimated just over $5,000 in damage. The car is in the shop now and I should be getting it back this next week.

As it is, I'm driving the 944 to school and while it's much more fun to drive, I do miss my subs and snow tires!

I don't like your mods. Good luck with the repairs.

Yeah, I can't say I'm a big fan of them either. I'd say my car definitely got the majority of the damage without anyone or property being hurt.

I'm thinking I might sell it and get something cheaper to insure once it's fixed. It all depends on how much my insurance goes up. I'm thinking about the early-mid '90s Audis, like an S6. We'll see though.

Hi Garrett,
Sorry to read/see what happened to your Monte , but
I'm glad that you were not injured 4-Sure. I hope that you have a great body shop doing the work on your Monte.

How's life at college ? How much longer b-4 you finish ?

Your 944 looks good, how's it running ? How many miles on your Monte ? Keep us updated & we will be looking 4ward to your new & improved Monte Carlo 4-Sure...
"Be Safe out there `OK"..Party/Smart...
p.s. Why aren't U driving your Truck ?

Although I'm an enthusiast of modifying cars I don't think I can recommend your mods to anyone. It's good to hear that nobody was injured though.

Glad youre ok Garret. I really don't think your new mods do anything for your car. (LOL)

It's good you have a sense of humor about your mishap.

Looks like that hood is a bit high to see over.... lol

Glad no one was hurt. Added bonus, it's not being totaled out.
