I hate parking lots, my driver side mirror was kicked or hit and swings back and forth just from the wind . Also looks like someone swiped me on the quarter panel with their bumper I found a bunch of scratches. I stress about my car being in a crowded parking lot now so Ive been driving my mdx as my daily.

sucks about parking lots, its a never ending battle.
if yours is a 95, you shouldnt need to add any cash to get a 92, even if its a 5 speed.
