C8 RS6 / RS7 / S6 / S7 Street Shield Skid Plate

Protection of your undercarriage is vital. Despite current and late-model Euros incorporating complex underbody componentry, only flimsy plastic belly pans limit catastrophic damage to your car. Between giant potholes, speed bumps, and inclement weather, your vehicle is exposed to a variety of impacts that can ruin your engine and transmission oil pan, oil cooler, core support, or other critical components.

At ECS, we've seen the destruction that occurs when a road hazard impacts a vehicle's undercarriage. We've set out to safeguard your vehicle and prevent expensive underbody repair work with a durable aluminum belly pan alternative: the ECS Tuning Street Shield. 

Constructed from sturdy 3.3mm thick 5052 lightweight aluminum, our skid plate is sure to withstand harsh road conditions that your OEM plastic belly pan could not. The ECS skid plate encompasses the full length of the engine undercarriage from the front bumper cover to the front engine subframe to provide complete protection. This plate is laser cut for a perfect fit and includes all-new mounting hardware and aluminum brackets for perfect fitment and maximum security. Furthermore, our Street Shield incorporates perforations for increased cooling performance of engine oil. In short, our skid plate protects your vehicle's undercarriage and maintains factory performance and cooling, all while maximizing aerodynamics by smoothing airflow under the engine and transmission!

FEATURES:

• Retains front differential cooling feature with added protection from larger debris

  • The hexagonal perforated vent design mimics Audi RS design characteristics alongside providing enhanced protection from potential large debris

• Slotted mounting holes allow for variation and maximum adjustability, ensuring a perfect fit
