Title: Engine guard
Post by: scarr89 on 06 April 2014, 14:23

How mnay of you guys don't have your lower engine guard (the massive flat one underneath)?

I can no longer fit mine as I have modyfied IC pipe work which meant removing one of the attachments 'brackets'...

What are the cons going to be?  :undecided:

Interesting.

Obviously the dirt wil be far greater, just thinking of any other cons? If was a pain in the arse removing it every time!
