So this happened on the way back from Mia. On the hwy no less, I swear I wonder how these engineers keep their jobs with how bad our hwys are!
Yikes! I had a similar thing happen on a road they "fixed" behind my work. I have an aluminum skid plate from ZSPEED and I bottomed out at low speed, but it sounded awful. I looked underneath the car and one of my zerk fittings on the bushing for the Hotchkis sway bar actually tore through the skid plate!?! Strong Zerk fitting
Well, that sucks. Are you thinking of going aftermarket for that?
Yes actually just ordered the TBW in silver

Yes thankfully. At first I thought it was my splitter dragging, thankfully it wasnt. I was on one of our major highways cruising around 100, hit a section in the road where they "repaired" it and it was a big *** dip. I didnt think it did that much damage. Most of that hole you see in the pic was from me dragging it the rest of the way home which was about an hour. I stopped twice to try and force the peice back up to stay but it didnt work so well with the air force,

Man thats crazy, thankfully you were not going fast
Fitment is perfect! You’ll enjoy it, the TBW shield is actually thicker than the Zspeed shield too. Only thing for me is my CJM baffled oil pan drain bolt is located on the D/S of the car so the oil door will only be used for my oil filter.
