Sounds like a "Fun" Night! I got stuck in Pee Gravel once...(Dont ask...) I had to call my brother to help me pull her out! The only damage I had was to my pride!
I got stuck in pea gravel once too... I had driven up country to this lake side house for what was gonna hopefully be a cool party and I nosed down the driveway hearing the crunch of gravel not worrying to much and parked. About 1am the party is still going strong but I had to work early so I head out and much to my surprise I couldn't climb the hill of the driveway in that gravel. I'd get part way up and just spin my wheels and like sink in. I kept backing up and trying it again but just could not get up the hill.
I was getting frustrated and noticed a couple of guys came out to "watch the show" and the embarrassment set in. Ya a girl is stuck in her stang... great. I tried again got stuck about the same place and backed down. One of the guys said, back up further and get a faster running start.
Sounded like a good idea so I backed up and felt my rear wheels starting to like do that thing like in soft dirt where you spin and jump up and down and I'm like... ok what now. The guy (half drunk) says, go for it girl. I put it in drive and pushed pretty hard on my gas and I just sat there and sunk in. Now I couldn't move at all. I tried to back up more but just threw gravel around.
I got out to look and you know how when cars turn they push the gravel out towards the edges... Well I'd backed into that stuff and it was DEEEEP! I mean my rear wheels were like 1/2 buried in gravel.
So I'm like how am I gonna get out of this. Well of course 3 or 4 more guys come out for from fresh air and now I have like all these guys checking out the girl that is stuck. Oh well, embarrassing but at least there was more help. They tried to push but I think I was now kind of bottomed out. So one guy got his truck and towed me up to the end of the driveway. It took me over an hour to get out of that pea gravel driveway. My g/f also got her stang stuck there later that night. So at least I wasn't the only embarrassed chick.
As far as mud... ya... I have to park in the grass a lot at school and it has rained several times and I've come out to a muddy mess. Sometimes I get through, sometimes I just sit there stuck. Its frustrating but at least being a girl the guy help comes quickly. It seems like all I have to do is spin my rear wheels a little and guys are like ... hum... stuck girl... we better go help her. That works when guys are around but a few times I've been like the only car and managed to get into some soft mud and then it sucks... Stuck and alone. Good thing there are cell phones.
hey merc123, where did you get your fogs at I got universals and they stick out a bit, thanks for the pic too, Makes me fell a lot better, "Like i am not the only one whos has crused with a chiped up cobra R front bumper"
Whenever you scrape on something it'll "bend" the plastic and cause it to crack then peel off. It has 2 metal supports underneath to brace it but both of them pulled out already. I need to get some exploding head rivets to put it back together.
Nope, no primer underneath. That's probably why it's peeling off. I went on Cervini's and it's supposed to have a urethane primer with flex additive. I doubt he did it like that.
