hi guys hope you are all keeping well during this pandemic, (I will renew as soon as I start working again, being a full time dj at the moment sucks) anyway onto my problem, my front engine splash guard/ under tray has pretty much had it, it's gone brittle and split at the back by the radiator support, anyway don't seem to be any new ones around, so my question is, would the car be ok without it? and are there any available alternatives to them? I've seen the ally ones in the U.S.A but shipping is horrendous.

I run without one and have done for a while. I’ve found a material that I’m happy with to make a replacement which will all be one piece so I’ll crack on with that when I get the time.

I have the aluminium splash  guard and do think you need one to stop all the dirt blowing around your engine.

I do like the idea of the Ali one just not got the funds till I start working again, typically I’ve got a brand new Oem rear cover to fit when I get chance 

The underbody (engine/radiator) trays at the front of the car do have an important function in getting

the engine (and turbos) heat out and away from what is a hot running engine. This page is from

the Road and Track guide to the 300ZX and provides more information. 

 

 

I've got someone on the Facebook group that may have a decent one he says I can have for the cost of postage which is very good of him, but no idea on timescale, I would rather keep something on there if I'm honest. if push comes to shove I'll get the Ali one from the States.
