Insight issues

A handful of people have asked me what the Insight looks like without the wheel covers. Well...


Driving down the highway, the panel over the right rear tire came loose. This doesn't look all that bad, but it was actually bent all the way around and upside down when it happened. I straightened it before I thought to take a pic.

A few weeks ago, a new rear bumper was put on. There were bolts missing that held the panel on. Coincidence?


All I had with me was a Swiss Army Knife, but it was barely enough to remove the panel and drive to the nearest town where there was a Lowe's. I picked up some various bolts and washers that would fit.


All sparkly, again.
