Good-bye Curby...

Sorry for the crappy cellphone pic ( Jacob), but here's Curby today. Removed the splash guards yesterday. Had to saw off one of the screws holding one of the front splash guards on but the rest of them came off ok. However, all the dirt and crap that gets in between the splash guard and the car acts like sandpaper, so the edges of my fenders aren't looking so great. You can only see it when you're up close, but still. Never again on the splash guards!

However, while the splash guards are removable, the fender guards are not! Between the sanding, the double-sided tape and super-strength epoxy, those things are never coming off. Not even if I wanted to take them off.

Honestly, I'm glad to have the splash guards off - they scraped on everything.

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.
