Was that your boss' car? 
Did you jack up your bumper doing that? It looks tweaked a bit. Impressive articulation.
I won't try that at home, but with my road rage tendencies it may happen elsewhere!

Re: votm??
It was a junker going to scrap.. it smells terrible, interior is trashed.. wheels are the nicest part!
The bumper is fine.. Those are DHC Off Road Mounts on there!!
I must say.. It was FAR more dramatic, and a MUCH better picture in my head.. but it sure was fun!
