down pipe / abs heat sheild removal

Be careful if you don't remove it. I sliced/split my finger to where the bone was sticking out and did some nerve damage putting on a downpipe a long time ago. As I finally broke the last bolt loose(the one that is hard to get to), my hand went flying into the edge of the ABS shield and blood splattered on my face like something out of a horror movie. I thought it was some type of fluid from the car at first. I still don't remove the shield, but I do always wear gloves now
