Feel like an idiot.. but for some reason i cant figure out what to call this thing..

Searched to find an answer and kept finding nothing.

So..

1. What is this called?

2. If removed will i have to remove the undercover for the car also?

3. Anyone have pictures of a 04 RX8 like this one without it? will it look super dumb?

If your wondering.. i hit a raccoon about a week ago.. and it cracked what holds it up.. the triangle part hangs down and it just looks horrible. I dont know if i can zip-tie it or something to make it stay up? Right now im still so mad i cant even look at it.. So any help would be great.

 

That is a replacable part of the front bumper that the undertray bolts too....look for an exploded diagram of the front and you will see it.....

You will need it to hold the undertray up...I think that part is relatively inexpensive...and it includes the V shaped part as well. As long as your bumper mounting areas aren't broken you can just replace that part

 

its called the "front spoiler" ... its not attached to the undertray

Wholesale it's about $170.00.

Incorrect. It is exactly what holds the undertray to the vehicle on its leading edge.

 

^ lol i know jeff. It does bolt on to the under tray but its not attached as in its not one piece :P

Maybe i shouldve said its not "connected"

 

Probably didn't need to say anything since neither is correct.
It is attached. It is connected.
It is not all one piece.

 

OK.. now making this not look horrible.

Keep in mind im broke.. so buying a $200 part right now is pretty much impossible.. i will fix it correctly later.. just really cant at the moment.. Here is some pictures of it.. Tell me what you think.

 

did you at least kill the coon...

 

I've got one here you can have for $50 plus shipping.

It looks like you might need an undertray also, unfortunately. Hard to tell from those pics.

 

For sure.. Saw the little bastard.. swerved into the left lane doing about 70.. he turns around and runs right back into me.. Almost cried. < true story.

 

Did some work today.. tell me what you think.

 

What did you done?

Can't see fuckall in that picture.......

 

stopped it from hanging down to the ground lol..

 

get a fiberglass repair kit from hardware or marine store. Apply the fiberglass and mixed resin(just enough to wet it). let dry. Sand. Paint. Fixed (broke style)
