    So why exactly did you decide to leave your mask underneath your SUV and run it over?

    I'm just impressed that it's still recognizably a mask.

    It was just sitting in the back seat minding its own business when Mr. SUV decided to occupy the same space.

    Good thing it wasn't in the trunk (which no longer exists)

    It looks like it still might pass the punch test.

    Bring a 6 pack of Guinness, or a good Octoberfest beer along with the mask to the armorer's table and see what they can do. You'd be surprised.

    As much as it pains me to see a mask looking like that (and a sabre one at that), it's a funny post. Hope you're able to get it covered under your insurance & either repaired/ replaced.

    You ought to send it to the manufacturer. This story and those photos would make good advertising copy.
