    I installed a new winch bumper yesterday .
    And today I was wiring spot lights .
    And decided to try and reinstall the lower inner fender well plastic.
    I found a decent looking way to cut and reinstall .
    Trying to keep front tires from filing up backside of bumper .
    And protect fog light wiring .
    I was drilling through two pieces of the fender well installing ziptys . To pull everything up tight and straight.
    About halfway done when I thought my support hard that was up in a blind spot would be out of the drills way.
    Guess what . It wasn't.
    Drilled into my middle finger .
    Had to reverse drill to get my hand out of the hole I'd stuffed it into.
    I came in house with a bloody towel around my hand.
    The wife just shook her head and ask .
    Hospital or home ?
    After 25 years she has seen it all.
    But at least I got fenders done . And I like it.

    Oh the finger is really sore.
    It feels as dumb as it sounded.
    Swollen all the way to my hand.
    But after 5 major surgery's. And being put under anesthesia 25 times .
    I'm use to being hurt. Or hurting myself . Lol
