No worries, I have a bumper
I mean, if you look hard it's really not that close, I have at least an inch to spare!
It can't technically be considered a stunt if I do it every day, can it?

Lol, calm down Balto. I promise I won't scratch the shiny off it!
I've been parking in that same parking space at work for like 10 years now, and I have that move down to a science.
That second pic does give you a good idea of how shiny that paint really is, though

I would love to 3D-print some tiny mirrors like that for my Cruze. Ahh, for time and money...

:P. I'm messing. It is amazing how nice that paint is, be sure to wax it twice a year and it will stay like that, even in the horrid Florida heat!

Oops, got it a bit close yesterday!
Had to invert the colors to even see the gap. Think I might back it off a notch going forward

You made this? Did you post more details about construction? Needs a dedicated thread.

Boom! Two 70+ mpg and 700+ mile tanks in a row, with a lot of carpool days with my wife on this tank! Actually had to climb back out of the hole when my wife lent her car to our nephew for four days, so all the short stop-and-start trips were done in Ron Burgundy.
My new route to work is way more Insight friendly.
Going to install my new custom lower grill block (like Turtle's only shiny black) by this weekend, that might boost my mpg a little and it will look way cool.
