You make an air dam in twenty minutes, and put it on in the dark of night.

You see trucks with grill blocks, and even a regular car with one, and for a second you're excited, because they might be catching on, but then you realize they just want their trucks to warm up faster, and it bothers you that they might think the same about your car.

People regularly watch the front of your car as you turn... and you LOVE it. I laugh every time I see someone turning their head to stare at my car. Even if my MPGs weren't any better without them, the looks I get would be worth it.

At job training, you start talking about cars, and one guy says he saw a car 'out there and it had teeth on it' and you smile, because it is your car. You tell them and explain the principle behind it and their interested look afterward gets you excited.

Your car is, hands down, the oddest thing in the parking lot.

When people ask about the 'stuff on the front of your car' it is almost a reflex to tell them that it isn't cardboard.
