    Wow Nathan that looks damn good. Now can you put it in a garage somewhere before a drunk driver hits it or some idiot parkors over it.

    Remember everything comes in 3's.

    Looks great Nathan! But what are those huge things in place where the side view mirrors go?

    Wow Nathan I am REALLY sorry to hear/see this. I hope through good investigative practices they are able to catch the suspect. Gnat is an inspiration for many of us, so he needs to be back on the road asap.

    I'd guess if Metalman was allowed to convert Gnat into a flatbed for use as a shop truck he might go for it. :smilewinkgrin:

    WELL SUCKY SUCKS!

    With all things comes a bit of opportunity, it is time for another shirt! :D

    I do hope someone steps up and fingers the molester of Gnat! Damn shame!

    Maybe you could rent out that nice coupe that is forsale for your winter ride! :devil:

    Hope to see Gnat back and better than ever. Get a Camry for your rental car, they are soulless but start in the cold.

    Condolences.....

    Yeah...
    More of a "mall rated" than trail rated jeep....but works for 90% SUV folks...
    Let's hopes MINI does not go down the same road making a car based on the masses needs as opposed to the brands true identity.

    Somewhere this is about my car dag-nap-it...

    Which is still sitting out front waiting it's turn at the body shop...arrrghhh.

    I did pick the bumper cover up off the ground. It's not quite as sad looking now if I squint, turn my head just so and the sun hides behind a cloud at night.
