What did you do to your Sedan today?

Realized that the groundskeepers cutting weeds around the parking blocks in my work parking lot had weed-whacked my front bumper. Can't prove anything but no where else have I parked that would have that issue, and it's clearly marks from a string trimmer and not road debris.
I guess I should be thankful they didn't break the foglight.

So I've been dissatisfied with the rearview camera ever since I got the car. I can basically see stuff 5' from the bumper (ie, if my kid was lying down on the ground in back of the car) but nothing to either side or up - not good when backing out of a parking space at, say, Target.
Local LKQ had a modded G35 so while I was looking at that, I looked at a 2012 Nissan Rogue backup camera. Camera package itself was similar to the G's and the plug was the same, so I snagged it. Last night, couldn't sleep so spent some time making it fit.
This is NOT a bolt in, but wasn't that hard overall.

Need to double-check the wire colors / wiring diagrams - I don't think I'm getting a green signal on the new camera. My grass isn't THAT brown lol.

Last weekend I installed new fogs lights (Valeo stock replacements) as mine were cracked from rocks on the highway. All the underbody shielding was a pain to take off. I also just replaced the battery as I got stranded at a gas station on my way to work a couple days ago. I also just ordered a set of winter wheels/tires from Tirerack as the had the Blizzak WS80's on clearance for $50 less per tire.

With your camber, I'd go with less toe. I'm at -2° front and rear with zero toe up front and just a smidgen in the rear for stability. Car doesn't track like it's on rails but it certainly turns better. Doesn't wander except on longitudinally-grooved concrete roads. Tires are wearing well except for track abuse.
