Default Another BWB fixed at Backyard Creations... (with CAR ****!!!)

I guess I'm Fan #4.

Anyways, I had an unpleasant enounter with a tire three weeks ago (see this thread: My IS350 + tire in freeway = ??? ).

Well, Joe Ortiz of Backyard Creations helped fix the car as quickly as possible, and now I have my baby back better than ever!!! YEAH!!!

Therefore, I had an impromptu photoshoot of my dirty car with a simple point-and-shoot camera. Sorry guys, I cannot even meet the level of talent that JavyLSU, tOe, hapaboy, and xtraboost have with photography. But I guess that car **** is car ****, so I hope you enjoy it.







FIXED TO PERFECTION!!!










THANKS JOE OF BACKYARD CREATIONS!!!

Bugs.

The car was dirty.

In fact, the whole front bumper, lower lip, lower grill, and clear bra were all replaced because of the tire debris. Thank goodness for good insurance!!!

I always liked the BWB, but never see them on the road. it is a very rare color. Nice pics PhillipMSPT. Glad your GFX was fixed to perfection, sometimes road debris cannot be avoided or potholes for that matter.

Before pics can be found on that link in the OP.

And actually, I had a Lexus license plate frame. But with Joe's great service, I wanted to give him some support...
