    Re: Front & Rear Clips

    That sounds a little politically incorrect .....

    It's just quicker to type clip (and everyone knows what it is ) than front body panel, rear body panel and a few other odds and ends!

    I'm sure someone will find a use for them!

    Seems every walk of life has the creeping liberal bullshit of political correctness and people screaming racism when there is no racism, wished it hadn't reared its head here. Time for me to leave I'm afraid.

    I have been calling them Clams - same 5 letters as Clips so nice and short - I always thought a clip was a front subframe and chassis related rather than bodywork.

    I'm with Darkside on this one,
    A clip is a suspension subframe, clam is a big moving piece of moving bodywork.

    That's not how your post reads, but the opposite.

    Apologies if that's how anyone read it John - the little smiley face at the end was meant to show it was tongue in cheek! Might have been better if I;d quoted the original post?

    No offence intended!

    That's what I have always thought they were called...


    ....and has a post been deleted? Not getting the references to a non-PC post....like I care about PC...I'm a Mac user myself.
