RE: HELP Bottomed out in Snow.
when i took my car in for its first oil change i asked the guy doing it to not put the piece back on but he did anyway, so i left it in their parking lot. i think its useless and annoying but to each his own rite?

RE: HELP Bottomed out in Snow.
If you leak or spill fluid it keeps it from hitting the ground/garage floor. It may helpwithaerodynamics. It keeps mice out of the engine bay (guy with a vwphaeton was in the other day for a chewed up injector wire from a mouse because he kept his belly pan off.) It keeps water/dirt/elements from nastying up the bottom of the engine. I think the advantages out weigh the disadvantages... Just my .02 and why I use mine.
