I've had my car for over a year and it is flawless, at least it was ........ pulling in to my garage at home last week I caught the lower bumper/foglight opening on a ladder that (someone) left on the floor . It popped out the fog light and ripped the bumper about 6 inches................ahhggg ! Oh well , not a bad accident if one has to happen , it will be all good in a couple of weeks when I get it in to the shop to be replaced ! 
the "Nanny" is no longer allowed in to the garage !!

My Ride: 08 550 Carbon Sport Almost everything factory, but no sound upgrades.
WC, I've jerked mine loose several times , most often on those parking lot bumpers or a high curb.
Mine has not been replaced but I have reset it several times. The bottom is pretty well scraped but it isn't noticable unless seen from below.
