Broken brace at the rear near the exhaust
My new to me boxster adventures continue. 🙂 While removing the belly pan to change the the transmission fluid ( see my other post for that escapade ) I noticed that the brace at the rear by the exhaust that has 2 bolts attached to the rear of the belly pan, was half missing, only the driver side was attached to the car.
When removing the remaining piece, it broke in half ( it must have been busted already ). So now that entire brace is kaput. I haven't been able to locate the part number yet, but my more immediate question, is the car driveable without this until I can replace it? It honestly doesn't appear to be doing anything mission critical, but at the same time it must have some purpose ...
