Default Byebye front lip :(

So im driving across the bayside doin about 100, when all of a sudden i hear a huge CRACK, and i thought i blew out a tire or something... Well, that huge CRACK i heard was my fucking front lip being ripped off my bumper. Not only did it rip off, it left a nice little crack in the bottom of the bumper too.

On top of all this, my car is running like SHIT. Its sputtering like hell, and fuckin take shits while in vtec. All in all, im pretty god damn pissed.
I went out to Gandy expecting to run a few people, but nope, my car decided to take a fat shit.

It was pretty windy last night, I went out for a drive with the wife last night and ended up going across the CCC. While I didn't have any parts fall off, I guess I could see where something could if not attached well. As for your Honda running like shit, I am in complete disarray, I didn't think that was possible. Are you sure it's a Honda motor in there? Maybe someone swapped in a GM quad 4 or something when you weren't looking.

HAHAHa....and to think, this isn't even a Gitstrn thread. As far as your car goes, front lips don't just fall off. Either it wasn't on properly, or your car is too low and you bottomed it out on something. Second, why are you going 100 mph when your car is running on the mystery tune? I saw your thread started last week where you said your car falls on its face when vtec hits = leaning out. Prolly my guess. You can make an intake pipe from homedepot out of pvc. Old school, but still works and is a million times better then no intake.
