    Covered in stickers and chrome stick-ons for extra horse torques and foot powers. Icon sticker gets me tons of travel, dozens of milimeters.
    Not the right forum for this.

    It may help you a little at super low "tap" speed impact but any real impact in an accident a bullbar will 'cause a lot more damage as it has zero structural integrity.

    I live in NY I understand people really just dun care when they park their car. Normal people when u hear a bang u would stop and go different direction, in NY some people will hear the bang and try to back up more to try to push u further back so it will be easier for them to park. That is the reason why I put on a plated bumper and rear step bar on the tow hitch.

    and my girlfriend keeps bugging me to go visit my family in NYC, that we should drive down. THIS is why I don't want to.
    If the peple here aren't bad enough I've seen how bad they are in NYC. Fuck that. I'll end up killing someone.
