Default One fooked mud flap

After our great day at Rockingham I dropped Daz off at home with The Corwman following in his BM.

Said our goodbyes and decided to do a 3 point turn, In the middle of this exercise Lucia (Daz's good lady) comes running down her drive wearing a bay watch type top that exposed rather a large % of her left breast.

The level of my concentration on my reversing took a dive to around 5% when all of a sudden whack !

I reverse on a curb and at the right angle the map flap went under the tyre. That ripped the mud flap off which in turn pulled the side of the bumper off and split the splitter


Women :001_rolleyes:

I feel better knowing a few people have done it... When I first started seing the misses I had my ra(pride and joy !!) managed to get it out the garage one sunny day,all buffed up mind..so drive round to pick her up( proud as punch!!) reversed up a kerb square on,outside her house.. caught both piss flaps between kerb and tyres and removed bumper and brackets and flaps completly from car in one motion!! Yes felt like a right tit... Or left one in Clive's case!!
To which her neighbour came out..who was a mate I hadn't seen since school!!
You can imagine the rest...

That's a gutter mate. At least the sight of some ladybits made it acceptable to a point!

I've also managed to catch a flap but luckily didn't do much damage after that I've never really been a fan of them but since having my latest impreza they do stop a lot of crap going up the body work

Mine are held by the plastic press 'rivets' from Halfords so if I catch a kerb they just pull the flap off not the bumper.
