AIRTEC Motorsport Under Tray for VW Golf R Mk7 & GTi

Technical Data

As part of our expanding VW product range, AIRTEC Motorsport is proud to launch our aluminium under tray upgrade for the Golf R Mk7.

The original under tray on these cars is made from plastic and only covers the very front part of the engine, leaving a majority of the sump as well as most of the gearbox and transfer case totally exposed. 

Our solution to creating a full length direct replacement under tray in 2mm aluminium began with a full 3D scan of the vehicle’s underside to ensure a perfect fitment. As a result, it reuses all the original fixings and mounting points plus five extra fixings, offering improved strength and protection for the underside of the car.

The design itself spans across the entire front end to help improve aero dynamics by ensuring air flow under the car is less disrupted whilst ground clearance is unaffected, which benefits lowered vehicles. 

The twin-duct design that directs air towards the gearbox is the same as the original under tray, but we’ve now added a third duct to direct air to the transfer box in an effort to improve transmission and drivetrain cooling. To encourage air flow to pass through, the under tray also features two large vents to help hot air find a way out of the engine bay.

Finished in a high-quality black powder coat finish, the under tray offers improved durability and cooling effectiveness.

What does an under tray do?
The under tray has three main purposes: to protect the underside of the vehicle from foreign objects flicking up and causing damage or accelerated wear. Secondly, to improve aerodynamics by creating a low pressure area as air accelerates past its smooth surface. This reduces drag, which works towards improving grip, handling as well as fuel efficiency.

Lastly, on performance models, the under tray often provides increased cooling by either venting cold air to, or extracting warm air from the engine bay. Therefore improving the strength, design, size and cooling effect can offer fantastic benefits.  

Features:

• Direct fit for designed specifically for the Golf R Mk7
• Created from 3D scan and CAD software for perfect fitment
• Made from high-quality aluminium for increased strength
• No drilling required and fits to existing holes 
• Protects underside of the car and improves aerodynamics
• Ducting to help cool engine bay and transmission temperatures
• Venting to further encourage air flow in the engine bay
• Comes in a durable black powder coat finish
• All fittings included, as well as a detailed installation guide

Please note: due to box sizes additional shipping costs may occur for international and EU customers.
