Part of me thinks you still should have. Tell him you saw a deer on the side of the road or something *after* he rear-ends you :P

My best friend has a story about his “Budget Ninja”, a 2005 Kawasaki Ninja he got *for free* in the “you don’t want to be here” area of Detroit, in the dead of night. And yes, he got The Title, so no, it wasn’t stolen goods.
Long story short, fired up *once* when we got it, and never again. Fuel, air, spark; fuel and…
hahahaha you think traffic police actually care about that hahahahahaha
*sob*
This story sucks, I want a new one!
Do 55 on the Southfield. I dare you, I double dare you.
On a quasi-related note: seriously, do 55 when you get close to Allen Park.
Roll 2D20; if crit, assign 55.
That’s been my assumption, at least.
No, it goes Mustang, then “radioactive” Camaro (in bright green), then ...apparently the same Mustang.
...is it like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife, though?
Google {make} + {model} + {DIY/forum/brakes/keywords}.
Or do what every single car owner in the history of ever SHOULD do, and buy the Haynes manual.
But I’ll tell you this much — I’ve done brakes on...lets see...a 07 Ford Mustang, a 91 Mazda Miata, a 99 Pontiac Grand Am, a 12 Ford Fusion, and assisted on brake jobs on…
If theres nothing at all in the way of your rotor (you’ve removed the caliper/caliper bracket) and it doesn’t just slide right off, it sounds like you have bigger problems :|
Track days, bro. RIP pads.

Danny does not approve:
See again: most of the time.
Get a bigger breaker bar. Or a really, really powerful impact hammer...
Brakes.
1) They’re absolutely essential
2) They wear faster than nearly any other component
3) They’re easy to fix (most of the time)
4) Parts are hilariously cheap, shop/dealership labor is not.
You don’t have to travel up north to do rallycross - Detroit SCCA has a full schedule of local events, including one in my high school down (about 15 minutes north of Ann Arbor).
Flint is bad. The rest of the state is good.
Everyone in Ann Arbor owns at least one (Toyota/Honda/Subaru). Everyone.
My Mustang’s seat mounts look like that. Has never seen a winter.
The paint applied to the seat mounting flakes off *very* easily, and those seats don’t go the same undercoating/rust prevention as, say, the chassis/(sub)frame.
As a result, you track a little water, a little mud into your car, it WILL rust.
Every subaru owner here: “Yeah, the head gasket just does that”
Born and bred here.
Falls are *amazing*. We have some very pretty state-line.
Several really good race tracks.
Couple towns with absolutely booming economies (Ann Arbor and Grand Rapids are both undergoing massive startup booms).
Some of the best colleges in the *world* for their programs (both University of Michigan and…
If you wanted to watch 1987 Mercury’s smoke out a county, you should have seen my high school parking lot when certain kids were supposed to be in Government class.
