Moreover, their will be no worries about the undertray melting if bigger turbo, etc. is added.

This underpanel can be attached to any stock bumper, since it attaches to the frame of the car. It perfectly attaches to stock bumper & C-West bumper. Another great function of the underpanel is the wheel well extended pieces that increases cooling of the brakes by allowing more air to pass through from the front all the way to the front wheels.
Looks pretty nice, but the pictures still don't show exactly where the panel attaches to the frame. Also, as a sidenote, I'm not sure if the wheel well extended pieces are such a good idea, since they open up a path right into a high pressure zone (front of the tire), which in the case of the passenger side may interfere with airflow over the oilcooler.

Picture 4 shows where it attaches in the center area of the underpanel and on the rear it attaches where the lower tie braces are. As for the side wheel well, its only a small extension for attaching the panel and for air to circulate. Their is not enough surface area within the slits to cause any high pressure to negatively influence the airflow of the oilcooler. .

The Beatrush underpanel is made of 2017 aluminum & its 2mm thick. Its thick enough for rally competition and light enough for time attack; as used on these Beatrush vehicles:

As far as a rear diffuser, Beatrush hasn't come out with one yet. However, with enough interest we could have them make one.

Cool... 2000 series alloy should be pretty good. One more question... is it a heat treated alloy?

^Yes, its heat treated.... Thank you for the support spoolingEvox; you will love this product..... The Beatrush Under Panel enhances downside rectification at high speed and generates down force. It also restrain the air stream from getting caught in the engine room to inhibit the engine from over heating.
