Default Watermelons vs. front lip

Thanks goes to the useless wankers who left 15 odd watermelons on Wattleup Rd this morning. The fruits in questions proceeded to snap my front lip into 3 pieces, and squirt a whole lot of sticky shit up into my engine bay.

Watermelons are known to be quite hazardous fruits. Quite a heavy weight mixed with their sugary sticky innards, can be devastating for unknown weary travellers.

Unlucky man, were they already all broken up? may have fallen off a truck or something?

They were toward the top of a crest and the high beams didnt pick em up until it was too late. Not even the brembos could've saved it lol.

Dunno how they got there, but they were everywhere. Must've fallen off the back of a truck.... "Watermelons For Sale - Enquire Within"

Was getting around to insure it on Monday morning. Such is life

I managed to pick up all the broken pieces but i think its going to be too damaged to fix. I wonder if there's still someone around with the moulds for them??

its not surprising these cars don't come with a front lip given the amount of 'my front lip got broken stories'.
