He was so preoccupied with my fogs he never questioned my lack of a front plate. Phew!
damn lucky!!!

I hear ya. And this one came out of nowhere. Fortunately it's in the bottom right hand corner of the windshield so it's not in my direct line of sight. But still, it's a good excuse to replace the windshield as I've collected a whole bunch of smaller rock chips already, mainly from following a certain yellow Porsche Turbo at high speeds.

Well, to me, 80 km/h is pretty damned fast.

New windshield and a repainted hood.

I wonder how much horsepower those mods will add.

adds negative horsepower coz the money that should be spent towards headers and a tune go towards fixing those parts!

Why would you guys do that sort of nonsense? First, you don't know what he's packing. Second, you don't know what he's packing. Third, you still don't know what he's packing.

He could even press charges for assault if that other C63 driver really did what you say he did.

My only hope is you're exaggerating your story.

Does Canada have liberal gun laws? It seems like anyone, with a decent record, could obtain a CCW (Conceal Carry Weapon) permit in Nevada.

^^no sense in fuelling the fire. That is very juvenile of him but very immature of you to react the way you did as well. Just be glad no one got hurt.
