In my days of owning nothing but Golfs, I got to work one day, and a smoker
standing outside the door puffing away said, "What the (insert colorful word of
choice) is that?"  I looked down at the front spoiler, and caught betwixt the
metal lower apron and rubber spoiler, was the ass of a frog, with both legs
dangling down.  Looks like he decided to jump just as I was zipping down the
road, and got lodged head long into it's final resting place.  It was a pretty
funny sight the way he was sprawled out.
