No worry! The main point is that you're there and getting after it!

And if it makes you feel any better, I've gone thru there with the left side wheels on that gaiter!

Like this?
Why is the photographer always around to catch a miss-step? My car made a horrible sound that I was sure was the sump being torn off. No warning lights on the dash, so I kept going. Next time thru, I saw I'd run over the grate. Man it made a bad sound but at least it was the grate and not my car.



Just to prove I did some good laps thru the corkscrew:



Back to the topic, all luxury cars drop tremendously in value. Good for owner #2, not so good for owner #1.

Yes, just like that!

I used the same line a few times and heard that same horrible sound from running over the grate.
