Is that solid steel? If it is, looking from the picture, it looks like a piece of rebar used to reinforce concrete.

Yup... that's exactly what it was. I have no idea what it was doing in the middle of the freeway though. At least I got it out of the road and free clear of a potential dangerous situation.

Wow, I would have expected that to crack the lip but it just went in like butter. Vertex FTW! Lol. Anything new with your car?

This lip has been repaired twice already and still holding on. I guess Vertex kits are pretty strong. Nothing new on my car though. I'm just trying to keep it from falling apart...haha

I'm hitting up Rite-Aid or Walgreen's right now! Maybe some Neosporin will help it heel faster too?

Right on! Our IS's heal up pretty good without leaving any scars. Look how well my IS healed up after I took off the bandages
