Okay. I'll believe you.

But if you were going to build a racecar from the ground up, it's a bit of a sacrifice to start with a weaker chassis when there is a better one available. Especially considering that the first thing to do is strip everything out; negating the difference between a Si and an EF (or whatever the hell the low end Honda trim is these days).

Or maybe that's exactly what they did but then stuck on one of those sunroof stickers:


I don't know. It doesn't matter.

Still haven't mastered the then/than issue eh. My past repeated attempts to correct this situation have failed miserably, Rawger can confirm.

Mr modden cu2 suv, may I ask kindly for your schooling services for this wrong attitude about auto x-ing and rdx fellow?

You may ask. But just like about half of my students... Some people *are* a lost cause and need to be left behind. #SryObama

This guy is one of them. Just don't say it so he can hear it. Some of "them" have feelings and start crying if they know you're talking about them.

@VR1, please fill this out and return for partial credit:

LOL. I think it's gotten to the point where he should write sentences that don't use then/than.

So took my car for a trip down near Miami and when I came back home saw this on my bumper. Guessing there's not much I can do besides apply some touch up paint?

i wouldnt apply touch up paint.
is it paint transfer? looks like a white car kissed the bumper

if it is indeed paint transfer, you can get most of it out with a polishing machine and some polish.

Looks like a giant chip/gouge to me.

Add underspoiler, live with it, fill/paint, or replace entire bumper.

I'd be tempted to just add the underspoiler or live with it. That's an earned battle mark.
