yep ok I see it.
that plastic cover is what's blocking the view of the turbo. Mine broke off so I'm used to looking at mine with it off.

I keep slamming my hood on the plastic cover after i finish repairs. First time i sheared the rivets off. Replaced em with machine screws. Has so far held together after 3 more hood incidents. Btw it is a stroke through and through

Yep, duals right over the top of it with 3 tons of rock in the bed. Made it into a bunch of flat, broken fiberglass pieces.

I am picturing this and then your outburst as you realize what just happened.
I ran over a pair of 125.00 sunglasses once. I was not too happy.

I set it by the end of the walk, where I thought was out of the way. As soon as I heard it, I knew what I had done.

i hated my cover. i hate your cover. i hate everyone's cover. dad broke mine off while taking a pointless look under the hood. i thanked him greatly. then he went and fixed it with epoxy. so i then got the joy of ripping it off. they conceal wayyy to much, and are too much trouble to take off.
