H13VYY 0 Posted March 11, 2010 Report Share Posted March 11, 2010 I think thats there for the protection of the exhaust system incase the exhaust system loosens and falls, so it's there to save the exhaust. Im not certain though. Anyway taken mine off last year. Alot of mk3 owners take it off as it hangs pretty low and catches everywhere. Link to post Share on other sites
