I've gotten rid of mine, just because it became too much of a hassle dealing with the damn thing every time I wanted to work on the car. If you do a lot of high speed driving (100mph+) you want to consider keeping it. It does have aerodynamic functionality.

That undertray was such a PITA to remove there was no way I was going to put it back on. I'm pretty sure the official count of screws/clips holding it in place was 2,374,953.

is this a do-luck front lip on this car? http://www.jtranman.com/evo/

looking to get a beatrush underpanel but want to make sure it will fit before i buy one. anyone got one for sale they want to sell?

also, how much does the beatrush weigh? would the br on be better for the weight savings since its plastic?

thanks.

Take one of the earlier suggestions....APR makes a nice one. Much easier and still protective.

I have been meaning to get the Beatrush piece for awhile. In the meantime, I've had the stock undertray off my car for 2+ years

Thanks for the responses guys. I am looking in to getting the APR wind splitter... I was already thinking about getting a lip so this would help with both of those.

Does any one have a picture or two they can show me of an IX with the APR wind splitter installed?

Thanks!

As much as my car gets worked on, all an under tray would do is get in the way. I havent had it on since I put on all my bolt ons
