My Latest Invention for 1M's Biggest Threat -AWAK Device

I call it the AWAK Device. Anti-Wife And Kid Device (AWAK).

I have patent filings on the way! : )

The biggest threat to my 1M is the 4 door GTI parked inches from my 1M in a tight garage.







I measured the high points on the 1M and GTI and built it to suit.

This is just the prototype. Production version will be Inconel..lighter and more heat resistant and I am working on a shocking mechanism so that when they throw the door open on the poor helpless 1M the will receive a mild, yet uncofortable 20,000 Volt shock!

Nice might want to cover the two top corners just in case!

If only putting these up in public lots doesn't seem so db/ocd

I designed something like that to protect my M Roadster from the jagweed who parks his obscenely large SUV in the compact spots in my building. They're basically interlocking armor plates that hang from the sides and cushioning is provided by quarter-inch rubber floor padding. I'm thinking about perfecting the design and patenting it as well.

Back your car into the garage and gain several more inches between the two cars!

My garage is very similar! I need one as well! I really enjoyed having a track car that really didn't matter if it got dented and such. Not the case now!

Wouldn't this encourage people to use it? I.e. it will be safe to simply throw their door open onto the pads. Still, it looks as though it would handle it.
