reattached this little aero piece that got ripped off when I drove over a board.

Do you happen to have the part number for those pieces?
I've already scraped them up pretty good from spirited drives, haha. Touring suspension is a bit bouncing and those are scarificial pieces which I'm super thankful for (along w/ the pucks).

Sorry, I don’t. I saved the one that came off my car.

Went to a car show in Prince Edward County. I was a bit of a lone wolf at this one. I think I was the youngest car by 30 years.
I revved it up for some younger car enthusiasts but the old guy in front of me told me that I don't have a real engine but his 60s Plymouth Fury has a "real engine".
I asked if he wanted to race but he just looked away in disgust.
Funny how most of us as car enthusiasts can appreciate all kinds of cars no matter the age, style, etc. but that certain people from a certain generational mindset can only see things one way.
To me there were many wonderful cars and what is important is how it makes YOU feel.

I see a similar thing with music. Some people get very tribal about their genre but the true enthusiasts can appreciate almost anything. I think it’s more about being an a-hole. And those exist in every generation. I got a Miata in the early 2000s and I got a ton of flack about it being a chick car from generation X/Y (my people). I agree with your final sentence - if you like the car, who really cares what anyone else thinks.
