I noticed my Z had what looked like a front air scoop under the front bumper but on closer inspection I realised the engine undershroud has come loose. It's quite possibly been like that since I bought the car not that long ago but never noticed it before.

 

So being completely non car mechanically minded could anyone point me in the right direction for fixing it please as I'd like to learn to do some stuff myself. How do I reattach the clips, or are they broken? I don't have access to ramps or anything so it's impossible to see what's going on under there, I did debate about picking some up but wasn't sure if they would be any use anyway due to the low clearance.

 

Apologies for all the n00b questions, I did have a search but couldn't find any help on the subject. I'd appreciate any help please.

My under tray is held on by 80% cable ties.

It decided to detach the front half and fold over on the motorway one night and scare the sh*it out of me one night :lol: had a few in the car so quickly patched it up at the side of the road. When I got home I went a bit mental with the cable ties and its more secure now than it ever was, quick release for maintenance aswel B)

If the original plastic tray is broken in the fixing points where the clips came out, you can replace it with our aluminium version, see here:

If you need just the bolts and nuts, see here:

Very, very easy to install / re-fit, you need a 10mm socket on a small drive :)

Thanks very much for the help guys, the aluminium tray looks great just a shame nobody would see it once it's installed. Looks like I'm gonna have to get under there to see the state of the fixings but the cable tie idea sounds like an ideal solution for me, certainly for the short term. Thanks again.

mine has zero bolts, just cable ties. Doing over 60mph it starts flapping. The understray is falling apart. But im worried about if i buy a torquen undertray, to wont have anything to bolt to on the bumper the holes are mostly broken.

I have the Z1 aluminium undershroud and it can be a bit ' Buzzy' at times but it might be just a symptom of my 370 being supercharged.
