ENGINE Splash shield -front ?????HElp

hELLO,

anyone know where I can get one ?? Dealership wants my left arm in exchange for the shield.

I think due to having a fat lip and driving in snow -it used to get hit in the face

weakening it's power and today on the highway -I hear a sound -like flap flap

flap flap - I was like siht - I blew a tire and how come at that high of speed

I ain't dead or car didn't roll over- pulled to the side right away and saw this

thing hanging down like a dog with open mouth tongue out.

Fortunately, it was only the front one damaged. So all suggestions would be

appreciated.

I feel so exposed driving like this lol -SA at dealership told me that it's fine to drive like this but I want to cover up.

Check the part out forum. There are a couple of E55's being parted with good front ends.

Thanks -Just emailed the person.

My car had no leak or any pipes that got damaged but when I turned my car back on after taking off the half broken shield I got a malfunction saying

"check coolant" upon checking it was indeed low ? I poured in more and

waited for some to leak but no leaks. So the shield allowed the air to pass through hiting the heat

exchaged and coolant dried up faster ?

That's highly unlikely. You either have a pinhole leak somewhere or it's being consumed in some other manner.
