Is it necessary to install an underbody guard for cars?

[VonThomas]

Of course it is necessary to install one. During our daily driving, road conditions are not always consistent. The road that was perfectly fine on the way to work might be under construction or difficult to see clearly at night when returning home. The underbody guard is a protective panel for the car's engine. Its primary design purpose is to prevent mud from encasing the engine, which could lead to poor heat dissipation. Additionally, it helps avoid engine damage caused by impacts from uneven road surfaces during driving, thereby preventing car breakdowns due to external factors damaging the engine. It also protects the engine from being struck by gravel and hard objects kicked up by the tires while driving. While these impacts may not affect the engine immediately, prolonged exposure can cause certain damage. The guard effectively maintains the cleanliness of the engine compartment surface, preventing water, mud, and especially ground dirt from entering the engine bay. Furthermore, it shields the engine from scratches and impacts caused by uneven roads and hard objects.
