Yup thats exactly what I'm talking about. It occasionaly scrapes if I take a speed bump too fast. I check it everytime I get out of the car. Drives me nuts.

Also Grabber blue attracts dirt like mad and my car is covered in rail dust (good thing it attracts females just as easily ). Planning on claying it tomorrow.

Oh and congrats again Dan, I saw your thread

Thx Jason, your getting me worried here with that deflector hitting bumps. I'm running in the garage right now to check it out. I can only imagine it'll get even worst when i lower the car.

The good thing is that you can remove it if it becomes too much hassle. There was a thread on here where a guy took his off. I'll try to find it...

Edit: https://themustangsource.com/f804/fr...-gaurd-481636/ there it is. apparently he super glued it back together...

You might want to have that friend help you return it then. They usually have a policy of only returns for store credit on cameras. I guess alot of people were doing the same thing.

Good looking out Gary, that would have been a nightmare. I'm texting my friends now to see who has a digi cam. If all else fails I'll drive out to Riverside and have my friend with his DSLR take pics

And I think GB attracts bugs like no other. I park my car and within 5 sec a swarm of gnats and some random flying cricket things are all over it setting up shop shop. Needless to say I moved it. Then today I park it and when I come back some spiders have called the trunk home. A dragonfly nearly flew in when I opened the door today while showing a co-worker! I closed it just in time and he missed by 1/4"!!

I hate bugs!

I used to do the exact same thing with men's clothing when going out on a special date. Sears was my place of predilection since i had a friend working in the men's clothing dept. Of course that was 25 years ago. I know.

Are you anywhere near Torrence? You should swing by TacoBill's. Heck he or Jed would love to take pics I'm sure. That's like all they ever do.

I remember going to Sears about 30 years ago when I was in grade school and my mom would buy me my tough-skins for the year. If I wore holes in the knees she would then put patches on them.

Lord help me if I ever wore holes in those knees.


I'm seem to remember wearing alot of corduroy pants. I hated wearing them after the patches. Made me feel poor.
