So coming home from work this afternoon, I was stopped at a light. When the light changes, the car in front of me goes, and I guess the ball was in fron of their tire, and just rolled under their car, and under mine. I heard it roll out from my back bumper. I got out and checked the car, and I guess the plate underneath my car to protect the underside of the engine is hanging down on the right side. Looks like it just pulled it away from the bolt. Going to jack it up tomorrow for a better look. You guys have any suggestions on how to fix this aside from getting a new part?

Thanks.

 

zip tie it back on

 

This is why I hate sports and its Paraphenelia.

 

you serious about the zip ties? they won't melt?

 

The under tray is held on by 10mm screws/nuts, if you didnt strip the plastic around these, just get some new ones, and you'll be fine. BTW you could just zip tie it back up, but it would be pretty ghetto....

 

Use a washer.
There's always duct tape too.
Sorry for the sarcasm. It's just the mood I woke up with this morning.
Seriously, just put a washer under the head of the 10mm body screw.

 

Ahh...duct tape. Similar to star wars. It has a light side, a dark side, and bonds the universe together.

 

^ It's similiar to the force man, not star wars . I don't imagine a basketball could do any serious damage, so just get some new screws and you should be fine.

 

Car basketball worked better in the Chevy Colbalt commercial.

 

No telling what damage you've done. You better sell it quick! I'll give you $50 to give it a good home as my parts car...

 

Thats cause japenese cars cant play basketball... only american cars can. American cars got GAME!

 

Yeah! But american cars can't jump..., no, wait, white cars can't jump, no, um, nm....

 

>> Yeah! But american cars can't jump...

Don't forget about the General Lee! (But they still can't land.)

 

Foul !!!
