Default Transmission shield????
Do you keep it or trash it??

It looks functional for airflow, but also looks like it sends air into the rear bumper with the only escape around the exhaust.

Thanks

The transmission skid plate with the lip. I've seen some with it and without.

Oops! I was looking at boxster exhaust and noticed a few didn't have it. I'm new to boxsters, and only had this car for a few months.

Thanks for the Tip!
