well i'm gonna give it a look sometime when it warms up a little...lol....geez it's freezing here...but the more i'm thinking about it i really like that aluminum undertray the guy linked me to...i'm tired of scrubbing when i go in and out of steep driveways or parking lot entrances...everytime this happens although not a whole lot it screws up the zero lift lip on the front and i have to push it back into place...the aluminum undertray would give me more ground clearance and better protection anyways....i'll see how it goes...but i'd rather pay $300 for that than $200 for the stock plastic

well i got under the car today...several clips are broken or missing...the metal screws of the rubber strip of the zero kit ripped through the plastic on about 3 of them...also the metal tabs on the bottom of the intercooler were bent down too...luckily they didn't break....so i bent them back straight...i also noticed tire marks on the engine oil drain bolt and the exhaust...there was no dents or damage though...and the plastic undertray was cracked in a few places but not too bad....i basically took the rubber strip of the zero lift kit off and put the plastic undertray back into place...it's still hanging down a bit in the front since there are some missing clips....but it will hold until i get the aluminum undertray...this just got me to thinking how vulnerable the oil pan,drain bolt, and oil filter are if you run over anything...since the stock piece doesn't cover them...the beatrush aluminum piece does so it's worth it just for that reason alone plus you get better air flow underneath as well...so i am going to order it right now!!!
