Same here, plastic bumpers ftw! To OP, hope you feel better soon!

Haha I love this forum. Still sick and have a fever. I coughed up gigantic chunks of flem for about 30 minutes straight last night. It was like giving birth out of my neck. Nice.

for3ver sick

if the flem turns green and tastes like shit, you are getting pneumonia. have them xray your lungs. i waited too long once and nearly died from it. 7 years later and i still cough everyday.

Listen to this man. Serious stuff.

LOL :rofl:

I see what you did there

Small drill bit was your biggest mistake, the oil wouldn't have come out with such force with a larger one.

Exactly what I was thinking. When I did mine, I used a small bit to make a dimple, then switched to a bit over twice that size to make the actual puncture. When I compressed them after the holes were drilled, they shot a stream of oil the whole length of my driveway! :)

one time i was wearing just safety googles and had to matrix dodge a stream of that shit. Ever since I wrap the fucker in lots of rags and wear at minimum a full face shield, and really shitty clothes. Scary story though, and thanks for sharing with everybody. Glad you're okay. Would be a pretty dumb reason to die, haha

Good to hear you're ok. But i thought that when drilling a shock that was under pressure, that common sense would say stand back for the pressure to be released!

I saw the title and was forming this in my mind. Thanks for typing it...and thanks for the HARD LAUGHING OP.

Glad you are safe, I used a full face shield when I did mine. Some mist still got it, tasted bad. I then added a dust mask to the combo, solved it.

Sucks, hope your lungs get better soon. I'm always having problems with all the shit I breathe in at work (luckily never full blown pneumonia though), it's definitely FTL.

The roof of my garage is more fluid-stained than a 16 year olds bedsheets.

Wear protection when drilling bumper shocks!

I had a similar experience. I did them on the car and a small amount sprayed very forcefully into my eyes. I washed them out thoroughly and didn't experience any more symptoms but did the last 3 very carefully after that. I did them while still installed on the car. Took about 30 minutes.
