Good morning, trying to identify this cover. Mine is missing.
To access fuel lines under the gas tank from under the car. Haynes calls it a "gravel cover"......need to find one, once I know what to call it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

(Picture is from the car that just came up on BAT)

Thank for any help/direction.

"Protective plate" per the PET. Not too much protection here, it's 20 gauge steel

Not meant to be a skid plate. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Simply designed to keep bottom of floor pan flat minimizing airflow disruption and to keep road debris off the steering rack and prevents debris from entering the area below the fuel tank through the large access hole. That is the "protective" element about it.
