Yeah driving on crowded streets is fine ..it was just in the back roads where the snow hasn't been plowed yet ..maybe there was ice not sure


Edit: now that I think about it mostly shakes from the shifter ..I think it's the snow that get caught on the driveshaft and causes it too vibrate

Did you get snow and ice built up in the wheel wells? We have some really slushy roads today I just had some big chunks build up and the car was shaking like a sonofabitch!
Those mud flaps do a great job of protecting the sides of the car but seem to hold every bit of crap thrown up there.

Are you going to put something in its place? Like a fog light or vents?

Haha, thankfully it's summer here so that is an issue I won't have to deal with for another 5 months, but I feel your pain...
