Automotive Underbody Protection

All Brown Davis Underguards incorporate several unique and important engineering design features, combining to deliver a superior product. Through years of testing and developmen, Brown Davis has been able to raise the bar in underbody protection.

Circular venting slots:

Often to fully protect vital cooling components, charge air flow would otherwise be affected, however Brown Davis incorporates strategically placed venting holes protected with 3mm steel mesh to ensure proper cooling efficiency is maintained for items like the radiator and intercooler.

Bolt head protection:

Although having a guard bolted up underneath the vehicle offers protection against object deflection, the bolt heads protruding from the guard on mount locations can pose a potential problem if not adequately protected themselves. Where possible Brown Davis recesses mounts into the guard to leave no bolt head protrusion, however where this is not achievable due to vehicle chassis restrictions, Brown Davis strategically weld shields in front of bolt head locations, preventing damage and thus ensuring easy removal of the guard.

Tow hook provision:

One problem often encountered with other aftermarket guards surrounds tow hooks. Brown Davis maintains full tow hook use and fitment to all guards protecting the frontal area of the vehicle. Guards are designed to accept and cater for the factory tow hook.

Cross-break folding:

On larger guards, long flat areas are carefully pressed with a 'X' pattern across the area to increase stiffness and rigidity of the guard, and improve the Underguards' ability to deflect large object deflections.
