    1 broken right front splash sheild, broken right front bumper mounting clips, rather large dent in left rocker panel, rather large scratch on left front bumper cover, bent up front license plate, and numerous stonechips from the drive there and back. Was it worth it? HELL YES. This is coming from a guy who cleans and inspects his car weekly, this weekend was so much fun.

    hmm.... very little damage for me on the ice. might have a new dent or small scratch on my rear quarter.

    the ride hoe however i got a big chunk taken out of my headlight (see pic). and also my car has been making some funky nioses. first started when we stopped at a light in cloquet. it was a wierd grinding sound like there was a piece of ice stuck in my brakes. it was accompanied by a loud squeking sound. today i did an oil change and while driving around i heard more small nioses. a clinking sound when accelerating moderately and while engine breaking. might be a exhuast heat shield or someting like sand spraying the sheild. i am not sure truelly what it is. but sinc ei beached my self numerous times on teh ice a loose exhuast piece is the best guess. hopefully its nothing to serious.

    Two busted wheel well liners(clips were smashed) and a small section of paint missing between bumper and fender. Possibly ripped out an exhaust gasket while hanging my car up in the snow. Lost two exhaust hangers. Thanks to Ben and Brian for getting me on the lift the other nite to fix the missing hanger situation. You have to pay to play and you can never put a price on good times. Needless to say I'd do this again in a second. Also coming from an obsessive car cleaner....ask Justin.

    i didn't care if i got any body damage and yet i managed to not get any, even though i nailed a very solid snowbank on fri night that spun my car around rather abruptly, all i managed to do was my exhaust partially fell off, which i helped it the rest of the way for sun, i'm sure everyone heard the difference :lol:

    So far I have found a Cracked front bumper, missing some paint on the rear bumper. Tore a front left valve stem, Transmission cooler line is now leaking... It was all worth it!

    Ripped out most of the clips in my front bumper and a splash guard. Should be an easy fix though. The zip ties are doing a superb job in the meantime!

    Put a nice 6" or so tear in the front bumer cover, ripped off 3 accessory lights (lights are fine though), broke a factory fog light mounting bracket, and trashed two wheel well liners.

    So, when are we having a body work install day?

    what tranny are you running right now? I thought you had a legacy case with RA gears in it?

    the guy who built it put in 1-3 RA gearset, 4 an 5 WRX.

    Since then i'm pretty sure someone replaced the RA gears, because the teeth dont look the right size.

    I noticed today that a few of my wheels are pretty messed up, one pretty big bend on the lip and multiple dings/scratches on the lips elsewhere. Musta been from going through the rough areas sideways.

    Is that even possible? We are talking about 16" alloy rims here, right?
