Hey fellow 240 owners,

This is my first thread on the board. I have reading the forum for a while, and have found lots of usefull info here. Alright last night I was out driving my hatch, when I thought how kool it would be to do 360's in a church parking lot. We just recently got a bunch of snow and ice. Well I did couple 360's and the next thing I know I hit a chain link fence. There was also a wooden fence right behind and that got broke. Well I took off and went to the crib. I got out and checked the ride there was a bunch of scratches on my right fender and the headlight cover. It f****** sucks cause I have no money to fix it. I'm bummed and wont be doing no more stupid **** like that again. Also one quick ? what is the stock diameter of the exhaust if I were to put a tunable muffler on it???

Sucks that you hit something. Is there such thing as a tunable exhaust? If you dont like the noise, stuff a shirt in it, that kind of tuning?

Check the local junkyard for a headlight cover, you also might get lucky finding the right color. Also check the for sale section you might get lucky. You can usually get headlight covers for dirt. Please don't put a muffler on your car. Fix your stuff then upgrade. Your best bet is a cheap decent quality aftermarket cat back exhaust.

I made a deal with my car that. It will start looking nice after I stopped getting my *** handed to by honduh riceboys. Until then it's getting a biannual carwash, whether it needs it or not.
