Default Lost a screw.

I was installing my Intake and one of the screws slipped out of my fingers and fell onto the skid plate area. Should I remove the skid plate and look for the screw? I just drove the car and I can't hear the screw.

I would, so you don't get a flat when the darn thing finally decides to fall out or some other damage caused by the screw hitting something on the car. That is my humble opinion.

With that being said how do you like the sound of the Intake?

Thank you. The intake sounds really good. I would definitely recommend it.

There's likely no need to remove the skid plate. Try using a tool like this:

Thanks as I just ordered one myself. I have many different type of magnetic pickups, but none that were flexible.
