I doubt it. I was in a bad wreck in my WRX and my passenger side air bag going off was like a bomb going off. The whole dash was gone.

But in stock form it's designed to have a set "breaking pattern". I know it's really powerful when it goes off, but I'd still worry if it doesn't fully deploy properly or something.

Has anyone seen the BB with the terrible looking (and sounding) exhaust around? It has some really ugly looking tips. It sounds muffled... but not in the typical sense. It almost sounded restricted. I wouldn't be surprised if that exhaust set up lost power.

Does anyone have a good PDR guy, my daughter opened the truck door the other day and "this" happened.

Some of the dent is up where thers is double sheet metal (or however you describe it) not sure if they can possibly get to all of it

Have you seen one deploy? If it can break a windshield it should have no problem ripping thru vinyl...

Does anyone have any interest in meeting up somewhere tonight and enjoy this beautiful weather?

I am probably going to go drive around in circles enjoying the new set up
