OK, who's poking the Peter B voodoo doll...

checked my ic coolant level and went to close the hood (hard) and put a dent in it. went for a drive to look for a tinter and some traffic jacka$$ cut a channel in the road for paving, same kind that bent my rims before so i slammed on the brakes and BAM dont know it didnt bend this time and just had car alligned. then on the way home, 20 minutes away, i hear wap, wap wap, ting, ting, ting. my blower belt exploded in the process taking out my chrome mb star in the engine cover, gone! so essentially i drive a 90k car with the power of a hyundai home where believe it or not, a deer jumped in front of me and i slammed on the brakes after getting an esp failure light on. i think it had something to do with flooring the car and not really moving. anyway, screeeeeeeeeeeeeech. no abs. finally got to park it. what a day

Actually this is exactly what happened to another guy on the board. He punched it and the belt broke loose. It also took out the emblem on the engine cover but it's fixed now.

tough luck today.... if you still care, the best tint shop in the DC area is californa tint, Great Falls branch. He only does very high end cars (benz, bmw, etc...) he has tinted two of my cars in the past, I am EXTREMELY **** and wouldn't let anyone else touch my car. highly recommended

Kidding aside, geeeez, sorry to hear about that. You are one of the true enthusiasts. Hope you get things back to normal soon.
