ben1985 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Unfortunately I hit a fox recently at some speed which has caused some damage to the underside of the car! I have attached a couple of photos which show the state of the car underneath. It has a fair bit of blood and excrement under there which really smells foul! My question is (yes I have no technical knowledge at all!) does it look like I will have to order a new part, i.e. the undercar protection that is hanging off? If so, does anyone know where I can get one? Also, I am concerned that the car is now going to smell funky for a long time! On the plus side, as it ruined my front bumper I have now got a Whifbitz front ready to go on, which I am exicited about as it is one of my favorite bumpers. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_123 Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 to be honest mate i think you do (im not sure) judging by the pictures it looks like the underneath scrapes across the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 that under engine cover thing came off on my old car. it was fine without it. just pull it off unless you have an imaculate engine bay you want to keep clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Walker Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 It has a fair bit of blood and excrement under there which really smells foul! Very graphic, thanks for that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben1985 Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 I think I will take it off, at least to get to the bodyshop then see what it looks like when it is up on a ramp. Whilst I have this thread open, does anyone know a rough figure for getting the following done? Spray and fit Front Bumper Fit veilside rear spats Cheers, Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ben1985 Posted October 31, 2008 Author Share Posted October 31, 2008 I am actually happy that I was going pretty quick, as when I got out to see what I hit, the fox must have died quickly, which is good in a way. I don't know what I would have done if it had still been alive..... I wouldn't want to let it suffer, but wouldn't want to kill it either! Does anyone have a part-number for this under car protection, as I may as well get it fixed whilst I am having the bodywork done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
