Default Anyone know what this is
I was installing my LG Pro headers today and saw where this had fallen down from my passenger side of the car. Noticed it after I pulled the stock manifold out and started bolting up the LG header. Anyone know what it does, or where it goes?

Hahaha, ok. I don't feel so bad. Must not be too important.

No. The arrow on your car is Crystal Red Metallic.
