That really sucks about the car Andre. Overall it seems ok though which is good. That's what the bumpers are for!

This might seem really random and out of nowhere, but could I have the old broken rear bumper?

Sheesh....
Time for a bodykit? lol.

These cars are tough, expected to see much more damage from the impact I took.

I washed it up at the shop to have a better look, plus I need to work on the suspension a bit.

Bam!
Could even do one for the other side, but no need to, since it isn't an RX8.
Such a simple solution to keeping extra oil in the car (make sure the lid is on tight though).

The last 3 letters of your plate would be how I hope the other driver will soon be. Sucks to see this Andre. Glad it all looks superficial and all the rock chips will now be a thing of the past.

Hey guys!

I just moved to Ottawa a few months ago from Toronto. Wanted to say hi to fellow FRS/BRZ drivers here. I drive a 2014 Raven FRS monogram edition as my daily driver and I was looking for some advice as to where to wash the car during winter? Any indoor car wash bays that allow you to use your own car soap and products?

Thanks,
Sunny

Welcome!!
Not to many wash bay options, most picky guys do it in the driveway.
I am not that picky so I use a couple of the outdoor wash bays, I have seen some people with their own buckets/soaps etc

consider joining us for Karting on Sat!

Unfortunately I don't have a driveway to wash my car in. Where are the outdoor wash bays you use located? Have you used suds car wash on merivale? They seem to have 5 indoor bays according to the website?

I'd love to join you guys for karting but unfortunately I'll be working on Sat.
