    Hahaha yeah I know exactly what you mean Mark, had three incidents so far...my duckbill has never been so mistreated! If I were to put a VR lip on the front you wouldn't even get that small tool under it...lol.

    Duckbills are HOPEFULLY inexpensive to replace. Might need to look into sump prices also... oops! *Note to self* do not try to catch the lights near my house!

    Way ahead of you The car is officially dumped! Both front and rears are on lowest setting (rears are one thread bit up from bottom just so the seat doesn't FALL OFF...) and it's still got that aggressive front-ish rake, but it's much more level now so I is happy. I'll grab pics for y'all soon

    Anyways in other news... I bled the brakes today but I've still got that shuddering problem!

    I used this awesome bleeding tube of Ray's (plug for supercheap auto hehe) and after I finished I noticed the brakes were more responsive and felt stronger But unfortunately I'm still getting a shuddering sort of feeling, only in the brake pedal, when i come SLOWLY to a stop with the brakes not fully depressed. Maybe it's warped discs then? I've noticed my front left wheel (when spinning freely) makes a noise as if the brakes are on the disc.

    PICS!! (Sorry for crap quality..need a good photoshop soon )






    The rake is almost not there...there's probably 1.5" difference between back and front edges of side skirts now. Looks aggressive so I'm keeping it like that (Plus I don't want to go any higher at the front )
