Default Crazy houston drivers - Thoughts on James Bond mods

Anyone that's been here for a day or so know's how ****ty the drivers are here. Once again I was nearly side swiped by someone wanting to change 3 lanes at one time without even looking. Then she has the ordasity to pull behind me, ride my bumper and give me the small ***** sign. I get it, you're a ****ty driver and just because I have a Porsche I have a small willie.

I've decided I'm going to make a James Bond modification to my car, I'm going to mount a couple of Paint-Ball guns under the front bumper. Next time I get cut-off I'll pull behind them and let it rip a couple of rounds. I think we need a little modification to the gear **** too with a flip switch like in a fighter jet.

Seattle = no better

I like the "Bond" ideas. Mine was a dog crap cannon that would just blast out a mess... I dont want to cause damage to them, just irratate them... also like a huge train horn to scare the **** out of them when they act like jack a$$es or pull up with some crappy sound system blasting out the F word every 1/2 second with a boom boom thump thump - again, no damage, just irratation - LOUD HORNS right back at them.... and all the while looking straight ahead like nothing is happening

ok - fun idea for a thread, what's your Bond add on do ?

No way. The Florida guy is right. They are f@cking horrible there. I live in Los Angeles and we are not bad. Not great but in the middle.

If only the other drivers knew of the tremendous danger they are in by riding the back bumper of a 996. Without any warning the IMS could go and shower the unsuspecting victim with ball bearings.

Compressed air gun firing water soluble paint ***** or face paint stuff, not to damage the car but to just give them a thought of what the hell happened here. I'm thinking the holes in the front bumper is perfect where I have a couple of bumper plugs.


Beside that it would give me great satisfaction and stop me reaching for the Sig Sauer....

Just hope the other driver does not have a real gun to fire back.

Some drivers just do not give a d**m about the safety of others on the road.

Oil slick. When they get totaled and you run to their rescue you can say "sorry about my leaky small dick car!"

I'd gladly send you some money IF you post a DIY and it actually works... This is something I've always wanted to do but never had the time to do it. If you even set it up (hell, set both of them up front and rear) so that it fires from the rear of the car, that would be good. I even want to do silly string to be released from the back...

And you never take off at a green light. You surely will be hit by someone running the light.
