Question about the front undertray
I've done some searching, and looking around. I really mostly need some pics and/or confirmation of something. The undertray on my Evo X, seemed kinda flimsy, but i think its because i'm missing a section. I just bought it like a month ago, and just want some pics to confirmation what I think is right....
I found one pic
From the oil change thread
Because i realize i can reach my oil filter without removing anything(though to take out the filter and let it drain, I'd have to remove the small tray), so I'm guessing i'm missing the section thats forward of the filter.
Does everybody's tray completely cover the bottom front of the car??? Thanks

Splash shields cover everything from the beginning of the front bumper until where the exhaust heads down. Just like your picture shows (also the shield section that bolts over the oil filter/bolt). You may be missing the front center splashshield, but without a picture of your own car its hard to tell. Theres a left front, RF, and center front as well as an engine and cover that containts that oil change panel. I know that when all the shields are in place and the correct clips are in the shield doesn't move a whole lot. Check to make sure its clipped in, theres at least 10 clips or so that hold the actual engine cover onto the bottom of the car. If theyre missing it just kinda dangles there. Hope this helps. When I bought mine the shields were in the trunk and I had to take it right back to get them installed, lazy bastards.

thanks...........yea, my friend thought there was a bag caught under my car when we were driving somewhere, i looked saw nothing, but told him my undertray needs some support in the middle, which got me thinking
unfortunately my car isn't at my house, it's at a friend's, i'll have him look tonight, but i'm gonna call the dealer and complain
but from looking at the picture....i know i can grab my filter from underneath the car without removing anything, so i must be missing the front of it

After looking at that pic, I'm missing the curved part that connects to the bumper, with the arc....it connects with the straight part with those black screw/clip things.....my tray only comes up to the oil filter, which is why i can grab it

anyone know if this is the correct replacement part for the front? they say it fits the evos but the pic doesn't quite match up.
