Why do you ask? It stop a lot of road crap going up into the engine bay and aids in cooling I think?

Prety sure they’re very helpful with getting rid of heat from the rad. Always good to stop debris getting into the engine bay, especially water onto your air filters

Ha ha i dont drive it in the wet...unless i get caught out. There above the v mount rad first photo to the left..think most of the hot air goes under and out...runs at 81deg c on track max seen 84 degc on this R3 koyo rad...its awesome...

Been meaning to close the v up with some ally sheet...but no time. Only thing ive done this winter is strip and rebuild the brakes.
Tim done sump baffle fab and fit oil change ...and gearbox and diff oil whilst on ramp.
Had a mad morning tweaking my turbo nuts and fitted 265 35 18s to rears Clives old a048s...so waiting on a arch roller from a mate as tad to close...

I’d try blocking most of that gap up to force the cold air through the coolers as most of be just passing through the engine bay

265s on my car fitted without rolling but the offsets probably helped. Think I could have squeezed 275 without rolling.

How much is the under tray?

If it take more than 10mins to get them out then I wouldn’t bother buying the under tray. Lol
