How it all happened`
I needed to pick up my mother at a shoping center yesterday. The parking stalls have those blasted concrete tire bumbers that dont allow you to go any further.....well I looked at them and they were a bit "tall" so I eased into the stall and to my relief I did not hit or scrape my bumber. I am usually very careful about parking in these types of stalls and for that matter even diaganol parking against a curb. So I thought nothing of it. Mom showes up.....unlock door for her.....she piles in and I start my baby up. I pull out, of course after looking both ways and I hear this awful scrape and grinding sound. Now......you gotta understand....My mother weighs in at around 225lbs. I had totally forgoten to consider that when I parked. If you ever want to see how your car looks lowered, I can loan Mom out to you. Needless to say I poped the bottom pin holding the lower part of the bumber cover.....that one is easy enough to replace.....but I found 2 plastic screws or what was left of them.
