anyone elses G's taking a beating this winter?

My 05 G35x with 125k is taking a real beating this winter. Mind you I take care of it as best as I can and try to go easy without ruining things with snow and stuff.. but so far: windshield washer nozzle on the pass. wiper arm is missing, the air dam molding under the front bumper was torn half way so I ripped the rest of it off, and my floor mats up front have developed a nasty musty smell.. looks like I know where my tax money is going! =/

Mine just needs a wash inside and out. I've driven it through ever storm and no damage....knock on wood.


Bit i wish the snow would melt so I could wash my car and see what color my car used to be.

My car's doing great, I just want to wash it, but I'm afraid of any MORE storms.

Yep Im down to all seasons in the front after I somehow destroyed one of my snow tires. Almost went nose first into a giant snow bank and wiped out the nismo. So need a Juke!

Also I hit 90k last week.

Mines dirty, but still shines when washed. Hand wash probably once every 2 weeks on average. Little bit of swirls have developed, but other than that, all good. No new dents or anything either.

driving it yesterday on the first day of over 30 degrees weather felt soo nice, I forgot how fast my car was and its straight stock! I do wash my car every week in the better weather, but when its 10 degrees its a little tough!
