    5mph? Really?

    Either way, anyone want to take bets on how long it will take for the subframe ears to collapse from the rust?

        Did the bump break the sway bar links as well or were they pre-broke?

              Do you mind if I use your pix on my web site? This is a great testimonial for a skid plate. Let me know thanks.

                  Yes. 5mph.

                  The pics make the rust look worse than it is. The underside was painted without any sanding before my ownership. The paint has since then started to peel, and the rust hasn't helped it. I can peel off the paint with my fingers to reveal clean metal.

                  The sway bar link was busted in the collision. That's what the pic was supposed to show.

                  The car will not be parted out, and the rust will be resolved shortly. I hadn't noticed it before. (I never had any reason to look up there.)

                    The city isn't going to pay for your oil pan. Your car is lowered, it's not their problem.
