Default Adventures Of My GS(Lots of pics)

So you guys should listen to me when I tell you guys... Don't let friends drive your cars. I know my car is basically stock and everything but take a look....

My idiot friend Brandon thought it would be funny to take my car off-roading before his prom because I made a joke about taking his cause it would essentially fall apart lol. All of these pics are pretty old, but I couldn't find the charger for my camera for awhile so I never got them on the computer, but here they are.

This was taken at my senior prom this year.


The day after was his prom... This is what he decided to do before when I let him borrow my car so he could show up looking somewhat cool.



and some day time pics. Oh, and the support ninjas magnet is his as well *sigh*; yes, that is black electrical tape on my spoiler. It has a crack in it.




All washed up and pretty.


Before HIDs

After(Need matching inners for 5000K.


and this is my father's new ride.

I was expecting to see something along the lines of him crashing your car.

+1, when I got through with him he would never mistreat another automobile. It would only take ten seconds to teach him a life lesson !!

OP you definitely made it sound like something terribly horrible happened to your car. So this in comparison is not as bad. Even though its not too hard to clean up and hope there are no scratches, you friend is an idiot. He could have easily lost control and killed himself or damaged the car. Glad to see its only some mud.

I was expecting some actual damage. I love to keep my car clean, I detailed it one time because the weather was supposed to stay dry for 2 weeks, 2 days later my gf wrote on the windows....needless to say she hasn't done it since haha...but I don't think he did too much off roading because I have experienced trying to drive over a 3 inch rock and the underside of my car didn't like the idea...

I kicked him in the *** and made him clean it and check for any broken things. Everything is fine so I didn't care too much, but nobody has driven my car since regardless of the occasion. My car's only driver is myself now.

Well, I've been wanting to get rid of it, but I have no money to fill the holes and I believe it was put on by the original owner as I do have the rear mounted third brake light.

He drives an F-250 FX4 now so it's not much of a big deal for him to throw it around in a mud put or something.

Yeah. I know. He did tell me that he almost got stuck in some deep mud, but he floored his way out. I made him clean under the car so it wouldn't rust.
