Tips for staying damage free
Eventhough I've only been on here like 3 days. I've noticed a major issues that keeps getting mentioned in alot of posts is damage to the car's body and apperance. I've learned (using both my actual car) and and Xmod, that if you buy some painter's tape (the roll I have for my xmod is green) It's very low tac, which means when you peal it of there's no , or almost no residue left to clean off. sure it doesn't look as sexy to have it on there, but it will protect if bottoming-out or scraping the front, sides, and bottom. I also take my hood off since I have a custom carbon fiber hood. However I can't help you with the flipping or mirror problems

Don't hit anything... 
...and don't get run over by a car either.

what about the side mirrors becuase, on my old skyline the side mirrors broke completly off and i was mad.  so i super glued the together then they broke off again so i traded it for a supra
(note) model glue does not work on xmods believe me it doesnt work
