Snow-Drift badge of courage anyone?

Anyone care to share their bent plates, the true sign of Drift-busting cojones. I've actually bent it back a bit since I went "real drifting." Everything melted before I took the pic, that is the reason for the slushy beard.

I broke the plate bracket on my truck, but it was from a ditch, not drifting :)

No front plate on my Legacy yet because I just picked it up, but here are my Imprezas. I've given up on bending the plate back and have had a bent plate since 1998. :D Between snowbanks, underbrush, and various other inanimate objects, my front plate tends to get quite a workout. ;)

The Impreza L rally car (note all the snow in the front bumper):

The Impreza OBS (RIP):

What happened to the OBS?

And what are the orange things behind the grill?

I was stupid on an onramp in the OBS. Figures. She survived dozens of rallycrosses, autocrosses, ice races, and track days, and I spun her at 35-45 MPH on an onramp. Stupid driver + cold track tires + sand = spin. The red discs behind the grill are the high and low horns for a set of Hella Supertones.

Yup. I highly recommend Susquehanna Motorsports for all of your Big F'in Horn needs!

But, back on topic, we at NASIOC refer to bent plate as the "Impreza Bent Plate Mod +5 HP". ;)
