    If rogue cops or ICE officers also stole cats, would that deter them?

    Hi! Both kits are from MCX... I went with them because my cat was stolen on my former gen 2 and the cheap oem skid was always falling off, losing its structural integrity, and carrying dirt and rocks that somehow got lodged up in there. Regarding the whole area coverage, I didn't create the design, however, just the feel of how much sturdier it is with all the fasteners and the extra protection it provides to the oil pan is worth it to me. IMO the extra plastic just creates more space for dirt and grime to travel around with me as extra baggage. :)

    Did an oil change, which lead to I might as well clean out the oil catch cans, which lead to pull the intake manifold for access, clean the throttle body, and so on.
