[Ladies Man]

so now i need a new front bumper dealy and when summer rolls around a new radiator

anyone know what the heck this thing is??

radiator doesn't seem to bad... I can get a new one thats better for under $300

what to do with my front?
I was maybe thinking http://www.cervinis.com/NewFiles/page10.html
just the front bumper.. of course since i have a lx i'd have to get fog lights. Also would that look ok with just that bumper? or should i just buy the whole damn kit? *thinking of buying the kit anyway*
any my other option seems to be junk yard and get a new lx front.

of course i'm gonna need a new paint job now too! agh! *sure it would be nice but i mean come on! good job gonna cost me upwards of $2000*

money just keeps adding up

paint job would be done last...after i work all summer... since i want it done RIGHT

*93 mustang lx 5.0 btw*

<< ...and when summer rolls around a new radiator >>



is it leaking at all? if it's leaking, you need a new on e now, not when summer comes.

Anyway, just get another stock bumper, it's all about the sleeper LX's

Wow, what is that thing? Did it come flying out of nowhere? Shrapnel? Someone threw it? Was it attached to another vehicle?

 

[Ladies Man]

i was changing lanes from the fast lane to the middle
it was 6am

i kinda saw something right before it hit

i just thank god it didn't bounce into the window... i have no doubt it would have went right through

radiator isn't leaking the fins are just smashed to hell

can anyone look up the patent numbers to try and find out what this is?

Thats what i found too

baltimore

so it is possible that it fell off a city/county truck maybe??

yes. you could also probably have the city pay for your repairs. they didn't maintain or clean off the road of debris.

 

[Ladies Man]

i think they'd claim that it fell off a truck and that its the trucks fault
of course i'm never going to find that truck

and it was bouncing as it hit me... so either it just fell or was kicked up by another car hitting it
