Umm, I quickly went to the front of the car and pulled the splash guard down to reveal the front tow hook.
Crushed B pillar avoided. I had an E36 bumper shock welded to my bumper so I can have a tow hook ring very visibly positioned on the front of the car. (It rocks, thanks to BoxerSix on this board) Just need to get one of those orange arrows to point at it for Tommy the Special Needs Tow Truck guy to notice.

I have been on the side of the road twice, at night, due to my Buschur LICP popping off. In fact the last time was the day that I got it back from the tuning shop here.
I took my neighbor out for a quick spin...and boom! Blew it off. Took me almost an hour to fix. Poor guy got stuck helping me.
I love Buschur parts, but their LICP is crap. I got the ETS LICP and it is a much better made part - with the correct bend. Since I have put that on, no more issues...

I think we have all been there and done that. the last time my ic pipe blew off it hit the bottom(plastic part) of my radiator and broke it. imagine how freaked out i was...i knew it was an ic pipe then there was all this water!!! Coming from the dsm world i ALWAYS have tools and a flashlight lol.

disconnecting ur MAF sensor when ur IC pipe blows off will help allowing the ecu to run on preset valve, hence u can get home safe or to local repair shop to get it fix. just saves some time and hassle of fix thing on the side of the road wich is extremely dangers...
