ok, I got my new(to me) teg today, its a 94 sedan, the pic isnt one I took but it is what was in the ad, anyways a unfortunate incident came up and I am in the market for a new bumper
.
I was going to get a custom one anyways in the future but now I have a reason to do it now. these are a few I was considering, what do you guys like more, the combat one I had on my old teg and I really liked the looks alot, and might get that one, but what you think of the others? I sort of want to keep one with bumper lights to not get pulled over, but do you think about 6 ultra-bright LEDs or whatever you see on ebay stuffed in each of the tiny little gaps at the bottom sides of the bumper would be visible when blinking if i had a flasher hooked up to them? any other solution, like making brights low/highs and lowbeams to blinkers?
another question I have, when the fornt end of a car were to impact a dirt wall
, would the dash lights being hot and the sudden impact burn them up or did the wires getpinched/cut? I would think it went form battery to a switch to the lights so I wouldnt thinka wire got cut or nothing, and the rest of the car is perfectly fine and the rear didnt hit nothing but the tailights went out as well, they dont light up. now I figured maybe they too were hot and the impact burnt them up, but the headlights still work, and arent the headlights the hottest running of all lights, or are they built tougher seeing as they get hotter?
also, I heard to be an actual drift you have to bve pushed through the drift or something like that, well I got as close as possible wiht my FWD tongiht. the back tires are slicks now, IM guessing the guy peeled out alot and put them on back. but I was goign aorund this long right, not really sharp at all, probably only liek 60 tops, I take it at like 75 at leats in my civic, but wiht good tires, anyways on the entrance to the turn it started sliding out from underneath me, I steered into it and held it from whipping around all the way around the corner, and the anhle of the car kept pushing it into the turn, so I didnt fly off the bank, but once the turn straightened out, I inched closer and closer to the ditch on a sideways slide, I was trying to correct it coming out of the turn bit it wouldnt hook, just kept going farther and farther around, and eventually the front hit the dirt and threw me around back into the road, the fenders/top of bumper still lok like new, and the bottom of the bumper isnt too bad, just a couple cracks, and it drives/brakes straight still, but the lower radiator support is BARELY pushed up/back, but no leaks or anything. man I got lucky. needless to say I am putting the 17's with good tires on tomorrow. and has anyone on here slid around a long corner succesfully wiht their teg, and ALSO succesfully pulled out of it once the corner was over, if I had good rears I know I wouldnt have lost it at al, but If i had good tires and somehow still had oversteer instead of understeer, would the good rears have helped me bring it back to straight?
