During some testing of our vehicle a water main cover that previously went unnoticed decided to attack our low riding car... It bar that the engine mounts are on and pushed the engine back a good 5-6 inches. It was pretty impressive. I promised some people here some pictures of it so I figured I would post them!

This is what it is supposed to look like...

This is what it looked like after the fight and after we cut it out to replace it...
