The other month I hit a tire in the road and messed the front up and got it fixed. But the plastic engine shroud underneath is still bad and today I hit a bump and it caught a reflector in the road and roar the front up bad and is now hanging.

My question is the aluminium one toolboothwilly and the other Guys one.. will it work good for a really low car? Is it the same all around as the plastic one? Or does it sit lower .... I need the guys with slammed cars to help me out ...

Thanks guys
Snoop

^Well, my car isn't slammed. But from what I've noticed the aluminum ones actually sit slightly higher than the plastic ones.

How low are you? I haven't had anybody tell me they had a problem with it yet.

As for height - it is designed to keep clearance as much as possible while fitting oil pan spacer and front lower tie braces. I have a lower tie brace on my car.

Have you checked your power steering fluid level? Have you ever changed it?

^Yes it will. You just can't make your entire post in caps or it will make it lowercase.
That also includes smilies, so sometimes you'll see people post something like this:

:d :d :d

When they intended to post



Just make sure you throw in at least one lower case letter or a smiley that has a lowercase letter in it.
