Make sure your IC piping is tight!!!
For all of you guys who have messed with or changed you ic piping make sure that $hit is on there tight. I was driving in ATl traffic in the fast lane of course down shifted and what the my car fell on itself and luckily I was able to coast it over to the side of the road with out getting hit. Needless to say got out after I lost steering and everything else and what happend is my licp came off. Now the interesting part was I had the stock clamps on there and upgraded to t-bolt clamps. Well the moral of the story make sure you have the right tools in your car at all times and your clamps are extra tight, cause all I had was needle nose pliars, pliars, and screwdrivers to try and get my bumper off and fix the piping, damn that sucked!!!!

Sometimes the T-bolt clamp requires the right diameter, other wise the LICP will come off regardless on how tight it is.
Best bet is to double check your clamps along with the diagram.
