Hello to all - I hope someone can help me.
Whilst driving last week I went over what looked like a plastic bag - then heard and felt a huge bang. Not sure what was in the bag (didn't stop) - but the following morning took the car to a local garage and they put it up on the ramp to find that a piece of metal had been half ripped off. I have attached a picture of it as they kindly took it off for me, but not being a bodyshop couldn't do anymore.
There were other scrapes and marks along the underside, and a small indent in the exhaust (luckily didn't pierce it)
How important is this piece? It looks like it was just a protector for the exhaust (and did it's job) - but do I need to replace it?
Anyone with any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
