Default Aluminum UnderPanel for RSX

Would anyone be interested in anything like this for the RSX. We work with Laile Japan - www.laile.co.jp and we may get this underpanel rolling for the RSX.
Check it out:


or this style:
\

Functions:
•Helps to cool down engine by drawing out heat from the engine compartment through the especial design slits.
•Reduces air turbulance, thus producing more downforce.
•Great mod for aftermarket headers, which usually melts the stock plastic.
•Protects under the engine from rocks and gravel during heavy competition like auto-x, etc.

Pretty neat but it would be better if the top choice protected most of the lip from scratches too

C-West already makes one and seeing as how no one/very few people have bought I don't think there's a market for it.

FYI C-West charges about 400 USD for the Fiberglass and 800 USD for the Carbon Fiber. Unless you can make it a great deal cheaper I think people would rather go after the N1-raced, more reputable company.

The price on this will be around $205-$250, around the same price for the other vehicles.

As for Laile, this company has been in Japan for around the same time as C-West or even longer. This company has been manufacturing other company's products like Cusco, C-ONE, and others.

Keep the suggestions and ideas rolling; as this thread is only to see what people have to say about a product like this.

i thought that the underbody of the rsx was already signifigantly flatter than most cars for aerodynamic reasons

It is better than most, but there still can be some improvement whiler acing. I've heard some people with the Mugen bumper and diffuser saying that they notice a difference while going over 70MPH+
