Well, I just got my Hidden Hitch installed. Unless you're looking for it, you can't see a thing. Really, really pleased. Just had to drill 2 holes - everything else was fine. Took probably 2 hours.

Now, I do have a nice, thick coat of wax on the front bumper. I just wipe it off with a moist cloth, then put wax on. It does help prevent lasting scars.
Of course, nothing helps what I did earlier this year! We had a special event where you raced the first 2 runs normally to determine your position for the second heat. Then, on the second heat they closed the course (made it a single, continuous course) and started 2 cars on opposite sides. Then, they started the cars - first back to their start position wins. No timers; you got 1 free cone and the second one DQ'd you; "first to the finish" was by eyeball only. With the "one free cone" rule, I made sure that I didn't hit any other cones, then towards the end, I strategically picked out a cone at the end of slalom that allowed me to cut about 50 feet off the race line. Of course, I still had to hit it, so I took it out with a fog light at about 70. Left a real nice set of triangular black lines under the light. I don't think they'll ever come out! |
