Someone tried to steal my catalytic converter.

Here is a Picture of the plate I made for my 5th gen, its a 3/16" thick plate.
I did a cardboard mock up and adjusted as needed before cutting the final shape. Bolts have been replaced with a few different types of heads including allen heads and some other features.
I removed the two skid bars that connect the cross member to the chassis. (i'm not going to debate the purpose of them here .. it will turn into the usual OEM vs sparkplug type, ball joint rathole that usually starts- feel free to check the 5th gen section for more drama/ info).:argue::guitar2:

excellent work amigo, nice job. Did you tie this plate into the sliders?

I need to make sliders for my daughter's 3rd gen and was curious if I should connect the two systems together via hardware.
