haha, i don't even know how you were able to drive that in the snow the first snow we got had like 2 inches on the road I backed out of my drive way put it in drive and got stuck in the middle of my road. I ended up getting my mom to help push me back in my drive way.

i say get a new bumper and instead of getting snow tires or whatever, just put on your cracked bumper every winter.

or better yet just remove all your body panels whatsoever.
and fill in the gaps with silly putty

I put the stock 15" turbines back on the back with the all-seasons and the car gets around just fine. It looks kinda dumb because I didn't bother putting the turbines back on the front too, but I get around great in the snow and that's all that really matters I guess.
