How does the radiator look? Is the car overheating yet? Man that's nasty.
I hit a swarm of bees the other day and had about 50 splats on the windshield. But it sure don't compare to what you went through.

Damn Scott.........that looks bad! I would freak out! I hate them damn things! Good news is they appear to be going away now, not too many left over here on the beaches. Couple of days coming home from work(about 12 miles) and I'd have about 150 splats! Would have to spend 1/2 hour getting them all off. That must have taken you forever. For those of you that might not know about these little critters................they are highly acidic and WILL eat the paint right off your car if you leave them on very long. I won't even take my car West of US1 when these are out...and forget I-95 or anywhere middle state as you can see from the pic.
I also would tell you that nothing much eats these things because they are too acidic. You should try riding a bike when these things are out, you have to have tear aways on your helmet!
