Neighbor offered me a 2002 Acura tsx with 181K on it, one owner and in great condition for $3500 fuck man I wish I had 3.5k but he knows I love cars so I just told him I'd help him sell it and we'll do just some minor work to it (just a bit of detailing). I Looked at the market and I see their going for a lot more and maybe we can get 4-4.5k for his, if he gets that much I'll take $100 and call it a day. It it has everything but leather interior and its an auto but it's a nice car.

Like what Rex Navarrete would say "shiet happens." That lady shouldn't be complaining because she is alive after three accidents so she should count her blessing. Just my two cents. Haha but very funny! haha
they do make deer bridges......well 'wild animal' bridges. usually just a dirt top with a legit tunnel underneath. i have seen them here in CO more for elk that deer. most survive a deer hit......a 1,000 pound elk is a whole different story/ they have some in utah as well. anyone who has been to moab seen them. there is one part of road in utah where there are flashing signs.....'deer actively crossing the highway' as you are driving it. we saw half alive deer writhing around and even on trying to drag it rear legs........brutal/

Question for you all (hope "ceb" is reading this as well). I ordered a CF aero kit from VIS-Racing and the fitment was really poor and I want to return it. According to their return policy, I am within the 5 day window to request a return and refund minus shipping. However, I was informed that there was a 30% restocking fee but there is NO mention of it in their return policy posted online..

Am I within my rights to demand that they waive the restocking fee?

Is my Carbon Fiber Hood defective?
All carbon fiber products require professional installation. Minor adjustments may be necessary for installation. These are considered typical body work and installation steps; the item is NOT defective. In addition, most carbon fiber products are hand-crafted so no two items will be identical. Small imperfections such as wave within the weave, small bubbles, and clear coat blemishes are inevitable and will not be subjected to returns and/or exchanges.
Can I install the hood myself?
All hoods require professional installation. Adjustment of, but not limited to, latches, hooks, or fenders may be necessary as part of the normal installation of all hoods. All hoods require hood pins for safety reason. All hoods cannot sustain any force or weight on the surface. Do not put weight on the hood surface as it could crack the hood.
Excessive Gap with the hood installed. What should I do?
Adjustment is required for any hood installation. Gap really isn’t too bad, and can be fixed, it’s just how meticulous you are with adjusting. To do it correctly (this is even if you put your factory hood back on), you would have to loosen (not remove) the all the bolts attaching the hood to the hinges to get that lined up initially. Once that’s complete, you will close the hood and check that there is not excessive tension on the front latch. If there is, you would loosen that and adjust until it closes like the factory hood. Do not gravity drop the hood to get it closed, or press on the front too hard (or press over and over) to close it. Adjust pressure with your palm over the latch area until it latches.

Thanks P. Diddy, Esq. I am waiting on them to issue me the return paper work. I did do a text search and found that they did state a 30% restocking fee was applicable on returns.. SHIT!!!!
