I’m not sure exactly what you just said... did an SUV go over a parking curb and hit you or a tire came off while going down the road and hit your car? In any case, there isn’t much that you can do to protect from heavy impact damage such as a tire or vehicle striking your car other than parking in as safe of an area as possible and driving defensively. As for scratches, paint protection film or a wrap can help prevent them.

Did my 36k mile oil change today. Waiting for all the oil to drain was like the scene from Austin Powers when he is woken and has to piss. You think it's done, then more comes out.

These cars look so friggin good in the right conditions. Imo they weren't able to match the 86 curb appeal with the supra.

I recently did my spark plugs, I'm so happy, I'm pretty sure I told everyone and posted it everywhere. My arms look like I went through a breakup in high school.

Agreed on the Supra. I like it, but when it comes to looks, I’ll take a BRZ any day |

Replaced my missing front emblem. Got this OEM emblem online https://www.subarupartsdeal.com/part...3013ca001.html and it's a perfect fit.

I'm sure if you could afford a Supra, you'd take the Supra any day.
