big a$$ chunk o metal flew two lanes over and tagged my AE lip dead center. it took out a 5 inch chunk and cracked the rest of the center piece.
any idea where i can get a replacement lip, AE or otherwise that doesn't lower the clearance of the car too much?

 

Could be worse. Some lady was driving on a major freeway here a few months back. There was a 1 ft. square plate of steel that flew up from a truck traveling in the other direction and came through her windshield. They never found the truck driver carrying the steel.

Let's just say she doesn't have a good place to put a hat now.

 

Dear God that's horrible....

 

damn that sucks Serin, sucks even more for the lady....there was a couple tree branches on the road right b4 i got home and i had to push to make the light so i was going about 60 [i was going up Grand rite past Chino Hills pkwy Serin] and i saw a piece on the side of road a lil late but it was far enough to right to miss and just when i was thinkn how much it would suck if there was one in the middle of the road i saw it, swerved right, then another one right after that and swerved left..i didnt hit it thankfully and it was kinda cool cuz i felt like a was doing the 60f Slalom [sp?] for a second....maxima, niiiiiiiiiice
atw

 

so any suggestions on a replacement? i don't think i want to replace the entire kit for that one piece. and if i go with another kit, it'll be lower than the rest of my AE kit, at least the ones that i know of. which lips maintain clearance or at least don't lower it too dramatically.

 

I recently hit a metal garbage can on the 405 freeway. I was going about 70 m.p.h. Gash marks on the front bumper on the driver's side, a small amount of fender damage and a broken splash guard. Total repair bill to the insurance company was about $ 1150. The body shop didn't replace the front bumper. They repaired the damaged area with a hi-tech plastic material. Same with the fender repair. The freeways out here are a garbage dump. Saw a sink and bed frame on the freeway over the weekend. Watch out for truck tire recaps. Those damn things whip the underside of your car something fierce if you run over one. I ran over one years ago and it busted my transmission !
