FRS scion , flimsy front bumper ?
Think it this way, if u press any parts on lotus & it bends in. Would you call it flimsy? 😂 hope that makes you feel better.

 Yes, when waxing your car ..... use only lightweight microfiber towels. If you use an old dish towel (or a baby diaper) it will be too heavy and dent the car. Yes, baby diapers ...... like made out of cotton .... we used to put them on babies, then wash them out and reuse them...... oh, never mind ....  The front bumper is "flexible" so that when you hit a bird at over 130 MPH, the bumper will give (to reform) and not dent. I think its past my med time ....  humfrz |

Light, strong, cheap - pick 2.
It's tough in all the right places.

This thread reminds me of the post last year where the guy sat on his trunk lid and left an imprint of his ass. I truly love this car, but I have no illusions about the trade-offs made to save weight. |
