Default bad morning + sound clip

Well i met a very sturdy telephone pole this morning in a parking lot, my grill guard took most of the hit, but still gonna need new bumper, headlight(well turn signal) grill and fender. took some pics, i just didnt see the damn thing as i was late for class, and had been up since 6am. just pissed at myself, ive seen that pole there everyday and thought how stupid to put it there. i put a nice dent in the pole, but it didnt even sway or anything, its pretty new and hard as S***


but while i had a camera i thought i would take a video with my exhaust, somebody had requested it. hopefully i can post it so it works.

well i could embed the video but that link should work.

luckily she does still sound good, and that odd squeek chirp that i had been having went away. cant seem to find a decent used bumper anywhere in town. might see if can try my handy work at building one..... but gotta check to see if my buddies welder can handle that. i just wish that pole would have at least started to lean or something.

looks like you got all you could with that hit, maybe you should add some orange paint to the pole for next time
