Minor scrape. Stupid dips between street and lot. So it's like a stupid pos 90° dip.

It's minor, but will eventually happen again. Most of downtown Houston is like that.

Uric acid is an excellent cleaner. It has the proper PH balance. Just **** on your wheels before you wash the car. Make sure your neighbors aren't watching (or they are good looking females if they do watch).
