The Butterfly Effect !

ReAVeR · 5th May 2008, 19:16

or you can call it ...Bugs Life.

don't know about other countries but in Greece butterflies fly like mad, i had my car parked in there and many butterflies start hitting it very fast (flying faster than 180km/h ...i think) i don't know why, maybe the beauty of my Type-R i guess draw them into it.

Ok seriously now, isn't it VERY annoying to have so many bugs in the car?
when the spring comes you cant drive outside the city faster than 80km or your car will end up like mine.
I had to wash the front area more than 10 times to make it really clean.
At winter you wash the car and then it rains, at summer you get bugs,
life sux

Oh dear.

In the summer here it's bugs, not as many as you though I bet. In the winter it's salt.

If you use a really good wax (3 coats will suffice) cleaning off the bugs will be easier.
Soak them with water for a few minutes before using a wet microfibre cloth or a powerwasher

I wonder what the last thing was that went through their minds before they hit your car?
