On my ph2 there seems to be a section of the plastic undertray missing - right at the front under the bumper there seems to be 3 sections a (middle and two ends) but the end on the drivers side isn't there.
The thing is I went to the scrappy yesterday and the two ph2s they had had that bit missing as well.
My question is; was it ever meant to be there?
Cheers, Mark |

Hey another Edinburgh lad! DO you mean an undertray for the whole sump? If so you could buy them but they were an option at the time. |

no - not for the whole sump - although would be keen to get one as I do a fair bit of off road (well driving through rally stages )
It only goes back as far as the front of the wheel arches & comes in 3 sections. It's standard on all ph2 19s (I assume as even the base models in the scrappy had it)
More of a splash guard really than an undertray. |

the drivers side one will have been taken off whenever the cambelt was last done, and then whoever did it didnt bother to put it back on.
Probably quite common not to bother.
I havent bothered to put mine back on yet, will get round to it eventually (yeah yeah sure i will) |
