Lost the skid plate... important?...

[MatthewDavid]

So with the last snow fall my girl decided to get a little stuck... well I didnt notice till now that the skid plate is missing... must've broke off with all the ice... or shattered... who knows?... all that's left is a little chunk of it... I'm thinkin of just busting it off since it's hanging down below the rest of everything... my ?? is do we really need to replace it?... I understand it helps relieve drag... also helps cool the motor.. but how much?... we don't really drive that far most the time... but once and awhile we'll take it on a road trip... just curious.. a lot of people say we don't need it but I figured I'd hit up the experts... thanks

oh yeah and Happy Holidays

What skid plate?

The Mark VIII's don't have skid plates under them.

Maybe he's talking about the front air dam? How in hell you'd confuse an air dam with a skid plate is beyond me though.

At least he didn't ask about the 2 doughnuts that go round and round in the front when the car is moving...
