Hey /o/, earlier today I ran over a huge chunk of metal or something on the highway, came out of nowhere. It seriously damaged what I think is my exhaust tunnel brace(?) and ripped some of the bolts out of the frame. How screwed am I, and how much will this cost If I need to repair it?
Pic related is an intact image of the part that was damaged.

If your pipes are fine don't worry about it. Just buy a new brace and put it on

Does that part actually do anything? I'd say fuck it and ignore

Same.

if it's that metal piece that is bolted in, its job in life is literally just to take a rock to the face

Appreciate the feedback, m8s. I"m sure you can tell I ain't a car guy. Pretty sure it's just a brace or shield meant to protect my pipes, which barely have a scratch on them. It's right in the middle of the car so I don't think it's part of the suspension or anything

contributes to chassis stiffness

it might improve chassis stiffness but it's probably not vital
