hello all, first off, I'm not mechanically inclined, so I'm hoping someone here can help. On the way home from work today my girlfriend managed to run over a 10 inch long steel spike, which flipped up and impaled itself into the underside of the car on the back driver's side near the gas tank.

1991 honda civic dx hatchback - forgot to add this initially.


I've got a couple of photos after removing the spike, nothing is leaking but going through the haynes manual trying to figure out what it is she's damaged, I can't find an answer.





our mechanic is closed for the day otherwise we'd take it there but I'm also hoping nothing serious has been damaged. Guessing the spike (which was hanging straight down from that hole and inside it about 1 1/2 inches) didn't go too far inside.
