Hey guys,
I'm thinking of having full-length subframe connectors welded onto my car but it was undercoated. Is there any danger welding onto undercoated metal? Thanks

Of fire you mean....nah, but clean the area really well before you weld. It's pop and sputter and leave the most god awful bubble gum mess if it's not a clean bare metal surface. Other than that, it just stinks up the car if you don't.
