well, one of my boys was in town on business and wanted to go to sylvia's and grab a bite to eat. on the way back to his hotel, something wasnt exactly agreeing with my stomach so i decided that i would go to his room and have a little "sit-down". as im pulling into the parking deck, there is a dip where the drain is and the a lip in the garage that sits about 1" higher than the rest of the pavement. POW.........broke it smooth-the-*****-off. i was actually dragging the center piece. i get out and kick the hell out of the right side. the attendant thought i had lost my mind. looking back, it was my fault for not noticing the lip and all, but, damn. i need that lip on the car. it looks naked without it......

Real sorry to read about and see that DrRick...

Maybe here's an alternative more sturdy 'lip' you might consider:

had to dodge a truck that was coming right at me and slammed on the gas while making a turn. Hit a big dip in the middle of the street, cracked it into 2 clean pieces.

Man oh man.....sorry Doc. :-(

I love that lip and really want one but after the horror stories I think I just need to go with a completely new front bumper. Maybe L-Sportline?
