Thats crappy luck dude, i have had a few close calls ha ha, its been about -20 C around here lately with glare ice on 100% of the roads, but you know the funny thing? any close call i have had, has not been related to my car ha ha, usually people in 4X4's who think that just because the can get going really easy that they can stop also.. gotta love idiots >.<

yeah man it sucks. i just hope it aint nothing other than just outside bodywork.
and yeah lol its funny watching ppl in 4x4's. they feel like they got a car with superpowers. haha
So the Stock front fenders are the same for all 2door and 4 door 92-95 civics?
because i was looking online at some aftermarket fenders (just to see if they where universal for 2-4 doors) and some say "2door only" and "4 door only". i just wanna make sure they will fit incase i cant find a 4 door.
THANKS!

that dont matter... here, we diddnt even have snow, it was just raining, it was above freezing but the roads were still colder than the air, so that ment ice... long story short, 504 wrecks in a 50 mile radius (source: Pittsburgh News) , ambulance flipped over and 2 paramedics and the injured person in the back were injured... 8 car 3 big rig pile up 2 blocks from my house, i had to work at 11am but they shut down interstate 70, rt 51, and rt 201 because there was too many wrecks, the state police barrocaded them off, and i couldnt get to work.. all that with NO snow.... it dosent matter how much snow you have, it matters whats under the snow

i was pissed, they opened the roads back up at 1130... i wanted to get the day off haha it sucked tho cause the girl who worked overnight 10-6am was stuck there till 1130. she lives on rt 201 and couldnt get home because 201 was closed, not that, she couldnt leave anyhow because were right on 51, no other way out, and 51 was closed haha.

your joking right? no matter how good of a driver you are, if your car is sliding on ice, 90 percent of the time, its uncontrollable.. expecially when its halfway warm out, no snow, its raining, your thinking the rain is going to melt the ice, and you hit black ice and slide sideways and the car behind you smacks into you... its not about learning how to drive, im sure they all know not to put on your brakes, stuff like that, but when the whole road is ice, it gets insane, view that one video, the car is driving fine and then all of a sudden, his car slides sideways, his front is still facing the front, but he went sideways, his whole passenger side slid into the guardrail, how are you going to control that?

Yeah once there's snow in between tires and the road... its up to the snow on what happens next. lol
you might think your pretty good at driving in the snow. TILL THIS HAPPENS lol.
i never got stuck or anything. i always try to outsmart the ice lol. but the person in front of me slammed on breaks, which made me have to smack on my breaks too (i tried letting the engine slow me down.. but that didnt work) .... unless i wanted to park IN their car lol.
but i just ordered a new fender, and corner light. both off ebay.... hopefully i dont got any fitment issues and im probably gonna need to seal the corner lights huh?
the corner light is probably just temporary until i can upgrade my whole headlights.
i found neither one at the junk yards around here.. only think i could do is order lol.
