    It extends from the hood latch in the center of the car to both headlights and everywhere in between. Lost a valve spring upper retainer and a 7 mm socket. I plan to make a trip into the danger zone tomorrow to see if i can find my precious items.

    Wish me luck!

    Lemme get it out there that I always get my stuff back. The hungry BT GP monster isn't taking my stuff for more than a couple minutes. If you tap on the front bumper cover, you'll hear anything that dropped in.

    If you take of that air deflector on the underside of the car (which is a pain removing itself), you "should" be able to get to your stuff. I removed mine to flush the radiator, and found 2 screw drivers and set of pliers. Don't even remember losing them.......
    Its just a car.......with rust and dreams for the future!!!!

    Mine has a taste for 10mm sockets. I dropped several down there, and it eventually regurgitated one onto my parking space. I guess that one just didn't taste good.

    I don't really have anything plastic left in there. Usually I drop something it hits the floor or rests on the top of the front mount.
