Debadged the rear

[moribundman]

What about part 05 (set rubber mounting for pull rod)? There appears to be another bushing in each wishbone (11).

What's with the URL on the license plate?

UGH. That is Jeb Bush's lasting 'contribution' to Floridians. I'm SO tired of everything My this and My that! That stupid URL has caused me to shell out the extra bucks for specialty tags because I refuse to have that gaudy ugly URL defacing the rear of my vehicles.

, But...In my opinion one plate only states are lucky. Being a police state, Ohio cops scream they NEED the front tag to ID stolen cars, crooks, etc like this state is the only state there are crimes in.

All I can say is as soon as I can get enough saved I'll be looking for the "You are now leaving Ohio" type signs.

I hear ya' RacerE. I wouldn't like mandatory front plates either.

To bring back on topic, I like the debadged look! Much cleaner and takes any '5 series pretension' out of the equation.

And I'm not putting down your plate QP -- it's just not for me.

And now also dewindowed...

The cynic in me says you should be happy the vandal didn't redesign any sheet metal. When I lived in Boston, someone shot my Scirocco's driver side window during the night. I found a .22 caliber bullet in the driver side door liner. I totally understand your anger and frustration. Moving seems the best option at this point.

x2. You can see where the first two attempts to smash the window were unsuccessful. OOOOoooo, this chafes my hide. Vandals did the same to my van a year or so ago at Inner Harbor in Baltimore while fam and I were touristing. I feel for ya QP.
