The cover under the car

[johnprocter]

Hey i was wondering is it dangerous to drive WITHOUT the cover under the car (like that thing which is screwed under the car its not metal its just like a little bit of protection for the parts under the car i think)? can i get away with it for a week or two just being careful on bumps and things like that?

The plastic cover at the front under the engine connected to the front bumper?

Its not going to protect the engine/sump from bottoming out on a speed hump or anything. It basically stops stones/dirt/water from entering the engine area, and possibly contributes to the aerodynamics of the car, but its not really neccessary.

Take it off and drive away no problems.
