    Not true at all. I could drive my car for 1,000 miles or 200,000 miles. I'm not old, so i don't hit curbs. It's not inevitable to hit the barriers on the edge of the road.

    You mean I'm not the only one on this forum who has not destroyed the front end of a z31?
    Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a mans character make him a moderator.

    my z31 was hit by a Public Transporation Bus on the left quarter, and then hit by a Harley rider on the right corner of the bumper on the same day… I was dead stopped in traffic both times.

    front is still good though :-D

    first accident covered the cost of the car!

    Rice .. per quick google ..

    * Any car modified superficially to make it appear fast, e.g. stickers from parts not on the car; racing seatbelts, …

    * RICE is "Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancements"

    * A Rice car is used to refer to sports cars of Asian make who have heavily cosmetic modifications and little or no internal modifications
    .

    why care so much what other people want to make their car look like anyways? The burgundy car looks great, a little too much reverse rake for me, but it looks good regardless. and 17x7's??? 17x7's?? ouch. not quite flush yet, even with the 843995504998 mm spacer you must be running to poke them out that far.

    Why can't you two block each other, or take it to PM? Useless dribble clogging up the threads.
