From what I've read and what people have told me there really isn't a under guard for the GE8, but I've also read that some are using the CRZ under guard.

Modified Beatrush undertray for JDM Jazz (metal), modified CRZ undertray (plastic), DIY undertray from Home Depot (whatever your heard desires).

I thought the Beatrush undertray for the GE8 Jazz was a straight install like the GD3. The brackets are included, but don't think any modifications are needed on the tray itself though.


That's on my list for this year.

I thought I remember reading you had to modify it somewhat, nothing major, maybe i'm wrong. I'd like one myself and don't mind drilling but it'd be better if I didn't have to.

From the links I posted it should be a direct bolt on.

i guess my question is why... just another thing to remove when doing an oil change...unless it has a big enough window to reach the filter without making a mess above the tray.


the undershroud will probably not net you much..especially not mpg cause if it did, the car would probably come with it as a marketing item...(?)

With the lower grille so huge, a belly pan would hurt by blocking airflow out of the engine bay. If you have the grille blocked, a belly pan can really smooth out the air moving under the car.

But since cars have to be designed to tow in Death Valley in August without overheating, front end aerodynamics are generally just cosmetic.

All the benefits were discussed on another thread already, page 2 I believe; down-force and cooler under hood temps for starters. For those who live in New England/ snow areas it protects the lower engine components.
