My @$^%*# car rolled down my drive way!!!!
So yesterday after a long day at work! My Bro comes in and tells me i have to see this!!! Well what i had to see was my OVER PAMPERED car was kissing a mequite tree! It trashed the right taillights and dented the bumper!! I have no pix cuz i was so pissed and dumbfounded as to how it happen!!! SO..... I ordered a set of gemballa smoked taillights and need some help finding a rear bumper.. Any ideas on where to look???? Even considering a full body kit since i will be painting! If anyone has had the same problem i now have an extra taillight!

Wow, I am sorry to hear that. I have followed your enthusiasm for your car on this forum and this simply must be heartbreaking for you.
However, it will be stunning when it is repaired.
Good Luck

you got me! that's what i wondered. i'm wondering if perhaps something is not right with my ebrake. but if i don't yank that thing up as tight as it can go...my car will move forward on me. the driveway isn't 100% flat..it goes down just a bit. and yes, it's in first gear with the ebrake on. call me crazy, i know! lol!

That seems odd girlie
With the car in gear it should not move, e-brake or not... (of course, that is with the ignition off!
)
My driveway is on a slight grade and i never use the e-brake because i leave the beast in gear... and I don't like to leave the brake applied with the hot brakes.
