CSK 911 C4S

While I was doing a little DIY oil change tonight I noticed some damage to the rear under tray.

I ran over an unknown item about a month ago in a construction zone. When I pulled over to see if I had anything hanging off the car and look for damage I didn't see even a scratch ......... then I totally forgot about it until tonight.

I could get my finger up in the opening and could not feel any sharp edges and could not see any damage above the tray even with a flashlight so I think I was really lucky,

This damage is right in front of what looks like a rear brake duct on the drivers side.

Does anyone know what's above the tray is in this location?

Should just be a metal floor board there.
Tray is to make bottom of car more aerodynamic.

duct tape is the cheap answer.

"Inexpensive" replacement part considering what most cost

Just to close this out:

Had the dealer look at the under tray damage when the car was in for some other issues.

Got word there was no further damage behind the tray. A few inches over and it could have gotten into the PDCC distribution system.

Got lucky. New under tray is $350 so I'm going to creatively repair it so nothing else gets up into that area.

You could make a claim on your auto insurance for Comp Coverage, since you most likely hit a moving object on the roadway? Would not effect your premium, and probably have a low comp deductible. Either way, you got off pretty easy. Good for you.

Sounds like a job for JB Weld. A few tubes.

Wow am shocked you can get a replacement part of that size on a 911 for only $350. That must be the cheapest larger part on the car!

Wait till you see the shipping charge.
