The bottom of my front bumper and associated parts down there look like that because of the gravel lot I have to park in at for work. #lowlifeproblems

Dang, you would be able to fly through our gravel lot then.

Eh, I'm not slammed, more like track stance. haha. Slammed to me would be tucking tires, and dumped would be tucking rim.

Honestly, though, if you've ever driven a modern BMW, they're fucking epic. The E60 550i was so easy to drive around a racetrack like an idiot. I could fuck up every corner then pass on the straight. It made driving amazingly easy, and it weighed 4000lbs. The FRS is so much sweeter and more sensitive, but it doesn't have the ease of the BMW.

You can go to Costco and grab a Cobra. It interfered with my FM, so I returned it. With that said, I'll spring for a BlackVue or a BlackSys dash cam. My requirements are pretty strict, so that's why I haven't gotten one yet.

Anyone have any idea why the outer edge of my driver's side front tire is so worn down compared to the outer edge on my passenger side front?

Tires have about 10k miles on them and have not been rotated.

Making a lot of hard left hand turns? Wonky alignment?
