  • My car has no luck with birds (w/ pics)

    Since i've started driving my B6T car i've hit quite a few birds, the first one was a gold finch that lodged under my rad, there have been many other birds that i beleive i've hit, but this happened this morning and one was the second bird i hit this morning


    1988 323 Station Wagon - KLG4 swapped
    1988 323 GT - B6T Powered
    2008 Ford Escape - Rollover Survivor

    1990 Festiva - First Ever Completed KLZE swap (SOLD)

    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

      Must be they are misjudging the speed because a Festiva is not supposed to move that fast.

      Dumb thieves go to prison, smart ones go to work for the Government.

        Judging by how it's facing, it looks like you ran him down. Obviously he was one of those who think Festys can't be fast.

        EDIT: Batstiva, ya beat me to it!

          Haha... I think it's the GTX hood actually... I hit 5 birds in under 5 weeks last year in my car when I had my GTX hood on.
