Ever since the prices for precious metals started shooting into the stratosphere a few years back, I've been dreading the day when every runny-nosed hype in town figures out that all he needs to do is crawl under my car and hacksaw off the catalytic converter and then trade it to The Pusher Man for a bag of good pure H. Well, folks, that day is here. So if your ride has lots of ground clearance and/or bolt-on cats, might be a good idea to sprinkle broken glass underneath when you park. On the plus side, straight pipes sound cool!
