Cars and Coffee attendees mock front splitter guards on Mopar cars

Ever want the yellow splitter guards from Dodge for your car? How about this?

Event this past weekend coordinated a creative way of poking fun at Dodge owners who leave their cars' pesky splitter guards on post-sale.

How? By attaching yellow pool noodles to their own cars' splitters. It's unclear where this car meet actually took place, with only a handful of photos […]

Provided by The Drive Attendees of a Cars & Coffee

I'm off to get a yellow pool noodle for my car so I can bug the guy in my parking lot at work that still has his yellow guards on his demon.

This was at the C&C I go to, literally 5 minutes from my apartment. Had me cracking up.

I had not seen this trend until they mentioned it at Barrett Jackson. I think it doesn't look half bad on certain color's of those Dodge cars, but yeah, 100% would not leave it on.

However, I don't want to disrespect someone's rarity trend, American's LOVE to think they have something someone else doesn't.

I dont think that dodge front lip guards look bad at all. They actually look great with some colors like black. I think that pink lip will look good, too. I don't get why everybody is so upset.

Unpopular opinion: the yellow splitter guards on look sweet.

Many people have died by slipping and hitting their head in the shower. I want to live therefore I’m wearing my helmet in the shower.

Many many moons ago, brand new cars came with plastic covers to protect the seats. These had to be removed but I know many people who did not remove it for years. Reminds me of that.

Am I in a minority in thinking that 'bonnet bras' are fucking stupid too?



I understand that the front of the car hits stuff first, but it's hardly the only part which will see wear and tear. And my word do they look dumb!!!! If they came on the car, like the splitter guards, almost fair enough to leave it on there...but intentionally spending money on them!?! My mind boggles. I'd rather have a rusty bonnet, and believe me when I say I don't like rust!

/end of OT, sorry. Had to rant.
