I got mine for like 20 bucks I think and it was flimsy as hell. The cjpp one is probably better quality.

Which shield is it you're talking about? My inner fender well ripped out and I had to buy one from rock auto. It was definitely from china and was about as sturdy as a piece of paper.

My local Ford guy gave it to me for $40 so I bought it.

So just to be clear, you got it from your local Ford Dealership parts department?

That's s great price! I was quoted over $100 for one recently. My wife ran her 2014 Vert in a ditch and the lower air deflector didn't make it out so well.

Oem for 40 bucks, not bad.

Yeah, he knows I know look online so he gives me the best bottom dollar employee type discount that he can enter into the computer. If it's within a reasonable amount of the online price I go through my local place. Like to support the locals when I can. Sometimes he can come close and sometimes not.

No, the one that attaches to the bumper and covers below the radiator.

Its easy to miss as it goes from the bumper to the radiator core support. Its not like a lower engine cover like my moms mazda has where you have to remove it just to change the damn oil.

Lol! I had one of those on my RSX and it drove me nuts. That's what this had me thinking of and I know for sure I don't have that. I'm sure it's there, just never noticed it. I usually look straight past the radiator when I'm underneath.

coyote guys have to remove it to change oil. it's kind of a pain in the ass, I can never get a clean catch from the oil filter.

Lol but yea what a pain. Just changing the oil on a 3v is a pain all because of the one damn power steering line in the way. Otherwise its sooo easy.
