Not the IC, but I found a packet of parmesean cheese (like the kind you'd get with your pizza) stuck to my radiator. How did I find it, you ask? I was looking at a scuff from a cone hit at an autocross, and was like, hrm...cheese?

I cut the proper size piece of fiberglass screen (as in window or door screen) to lay over mine. Keeps everything out and has kept the bigger pieces of debris (or bugs) from bending the fins.

Right after I bought my WRX, I noticed that after driving in the rain, the insulation underneath the hood was soaking wet. Under closer inspection, I started pulling some debris out from the scoop/splitter area and when I tugged on what I thought was a stick, it turned out to be a dead bird's leg. Freaked the crap out of me!

So put me down for one dead bird.

I got a FMIC and I ran over a rabbit on a back road and it was stuck to my FMIC. Does that count?

I've had the entrails (guts) off a possum all wrapped around my FMIC. Talk about nasty to clean off.

Same as above but that damn finch ended up getting roasted @ the bottom of my top mount. Smelt like chicken tho

member !S4 and I used to live next to each other in an aparment. He and I kept finding half eaten cookies and muffins on our cars (his LGT in the scoop, my MR2 Turbo on the engine cover) especially in the colder days.

We both thought someone was messing with us until 1 day I saw a squirel (sp?) climbing on my car with a cookie as I came home from work (MR2 was not daily driven) and it all made sense, silly squirel.

About 10 cicada's. When they came last year I thought it was like the plague come back, it was like I was driving through a black cloud of bugs. They looked real nice plastered all over the front of my white car.
