Yes, it does have big openings. But like shown in my post above, I installed a stainless steel mesh in it.

My turn. Hit a curb in West U, on Buffalo Speedway, they just redid it and it narrows at one point, popped the passenger side front tire. BMW automatically called me and I asked for a tow. Quoted me $150, so I went ahead. They took it to Momentum. $860 to replace the tire and do a 4 wheel alignment. I'm going to replace the other 3 tires so they all match. So the flat is going to cost me over $2300! BMWs are expensive to keep! lol.

Debris Damage
In 2015, my wife hit some debris in my 2013 M3, punched a 1 inch gouge in the oil pan. Surrounded by traffic at 80 mph, she continued to a nearby shop. Engine was toast and with $25k for an engine, Insurance totaled it, $25k for an engine. Her guilt gave me a 911 S that I drove for 90k wonderful miles. Just now got a 2020 M 5 Competition!! Wow, thrilled, what a car.

In my limited exposure to Houston roads, only lived here for 6 years, the minor roads are atrocious. So many poor repairs to road surface that sometimes an outback gravel track seems smoother to drive on. Another pet peev are the numerous aggressively elevated driveways when exiting the road to enter shopping centre's, service stations, car parks etc. Very hard place on front splitters! I'd love to put a nice splitter on the front of mine but I fear it would only last a month or so! All in all you'll be ok... just book a chiropractor appointment if you intend to spend anytime in Houston! Btw - I drove from Houston to Northern California and back last year (in my trusty 2012 LR). Excellent road trip! Enjoy! |

For anyone going through Houston on I-10, here's the Cliff's Notes version: I-10 east of downtown Houston = bad I-10 west of downtown Houston = good (generally speaking)

….put a hardy mesh on it for added peace of mind. You’ve been through enough mayhem.
