Micro Image - underpanel prototype
We have our underpanel in final prototype, almost ready for production. We've made some unique design changes and improvements to existing underpanels out there. Your comments are welcomed!
1. The new panel has no vents in the bottom. There is plenty of airflow out the back and there were complaints about the vents scraping. 2. The panel has a 90-degree bend in the rear for stiffness. This avoids having to take apart some of your suspension to install the panel, and now requires fewer brackets and hardware. 3. This kit comes with two side panels and three front brackets that permanently bolt to existing holes on the car - no drilling. 4. The panel attaches to the brackets with stainless quarter-turn Dzus fasteners. You don't have to unbolt the whole thing just to change your oil. With seven points of attachment, the panel is very secure, yet easy to remove. This will come with all the hardware needed, all the brackets, two side panels, and the underpanel. It will be hard anodized in red or grey. This should improve aerodynamics and possibly add a couple of mpg. The first run of these will be approximately $189 which includes shipping. Here are a few pics of the prototype; keep in mind that this is a very rough, unfinished version for us to test on the car.
