Default Another reason not to let your gf drive your car

My gf took the car and this is what happens come back with the front bumper lip missing :0. I guess another reason to get an aftermarket one!

Ooof, that hurts. Now you can get a new lip!

My fiance hates that mine is low and refuses to drive it, fortunately.

Did she go over a few bumps in the road or something to jar the lip off. The oem lip is pretty secure with the screws...

Well, like others have said, good excuse for a new lip. What are you looking at?

Looks like she might have gone over a parking cement blockers and yanked the lip when she reversed out of the spot. :X

Maybe it wasn't her fault xD
I got trapped in my lane on the highway once and had to bulldoze over someone's blown tire :[
Luckily my lip stayed on haha

most women lack the attention to driving detail when it comes to driving a car that requires a little more care while driving.

Im sure she feels "really bad" so you should punch her in the mouth to teach her a lesson

im kidding, stop domestic violence... women's rights... and all that...

make her buy you the lip you want

lmao. I let my sister drive my car when it was at stock height and she parked it where the front bumper hovered over the curb. The distance was like 1 mm

Grab a front lip and a tow hook cover while you're at it

Your "wife" yes, she's probably allowed to drive it. But girlfriend? Ohh heck nah!!

(and even if she becomes your wife, after this incident, she's lost all driving priviledges in your car)
