I ordered the one pictured below, but I wouldn't call it reasonable (or OEM). It also is not very timely... I ordered it 4 months ago and I just got the notice that it is on the UPS truck yesterday. :roll:Quote:

Hmmm... do you have to remove it each time you do an oil change? It looks like it covers the oil pain completely (which is nice in it's own way).
It's my understanding that one of the holes you see lines right up with the oil plug... I will let you know how it works once it gets here.Quote:

I really do find it silly that I have spent so much on something that you don't really see, but something about that pic made me pull out the CC faster than you can say Bling Bling! :afro:Quote:

i wouldnt run a metal underpan if you ever plan to AX or track the car, i have seen the kit for BMW's get tangled up with a cone and break radiaters and hoses. it was a mess.
Some discussion here:

I'm waiting for the "new" Adrenaline Racing 99+ version that's cheaper and appears to offer fuller coverage. My plastic one is *#$&*ed after 32k miles.
Wow, that is some bling.Quote:

It is made by Beatrush, and was sourced out of Japan for me by Adrenaline Racing. It is made out of Aluminum. They claim better cooling then stock but who knows. My stock one is torn and falling off, so I used this as an exuse (you know... I NEEDED it!). It was $195, but i got killed on the shipping... it soared from $15 to $90 when the group buy disolved.Quote:

Remember, all of the stock ones that are trashed didn't just get that way by themselves.
I'm still thinking I could fab one of those babies for less than $20.
