When I had to tow mine the guy bent the heck out of the front bumper using those hook to reel it in. Firberglass would give and the paint will go quicker since it has no flex agent in it :(... I don't know how you can drive in Dearborn and keep it looking so good. Mich ave is a scene from the WWII movies, I know they are fixing it now but just WOW. Any damage to the 18" yet?
