A friend sent me this.

Looks like the LS emblem is delayed
I have to say though, purely on a "look" basis, the lexus badge would've looked decent... everything else ..

When I was in Texas on business. Certainly not my style, but hey the driver likes it.

The usual BMW behavior in rush hour. He cuts across the solid white to pass about 5 cars. He also didn't want to merge every other but attempted one of those two-fer moves by pushing into the queue behind another car. At this hour nobody is getting home any faster than the car in front. Wish CHP was sitting there for the others that copied this driver's move.

Usual Prius antics. This driver drove the shoulder for the next 3 miles thinking he would get ahead. He didn't due to the merging traffic that slowed him at each on ramp.



Here he is about 1 mile down the road and still in front of me. Brilliant thought process this driver has...look at the time stamp in the lower right corner between frames.

I'd like to add my garage door to this fail thread.

While backing out, it started closing by itself. I thought I pulled forward quick enough without it closing on me but on further inspection it got my roof

Slight dent..can only see it at an angle only if you tried, you can only see it in the reflection of the tint, some scratches as well. I guess it's time to get a roof wrap.

Ouch. Last month my neighbor had the hatch up on the minivan and he attempted to park in the garage, this was not successful. Fortunate that it only broke the glass. That's not the first time he's done that either, he also backed into his closed garage door and this was prior to having back-up/proximity sensors.

Fixed it Sorta

I ended up going back to Rhino Customs (they did my chrome delete on the windows, grill, cf center front lip and Ceramic Pro Coating) to wrap my roof in gloss black, I went back and forth between black and carbon fiber, but went with black because I like carbon fiber in subtle spots and I like the subtly of the black roof.
