The aluminum lower engine cover on the FL5 Civic Type R and DE5 Integra Type S is one of the most commonly damaged parts on these cars, and it's not hard to see why. These are low, hard-driven cars, and that cover is the lowest, most forward panel under the nose. A steep driveway, a parking block, a track kerb, or road debris at speed catches an edge, and from there it bends, tears at the mounts, or peels away until you hear it dragging. This is the genuine Honda replacement, part number 74114-T60-A00.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eYou'll Also Need Bolts, They're Sold Separately\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGet this right before you check out, because the cover ships on its own. The bolts that hold it to the underside of the car are part number \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/honda-l15b-l15ca-lower-engine-cover-bolt-oha-90105-tba-a00?groups=\u0026amp;universal=false\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eOHA-90105-TBA-A00\u003c\/a\u003e, and you'll need four of them. Add those to your order or you'll have a new cover and no way to mount it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne more honest heads-up: if yours came off violently, whether it caught something at speed or got torn away over a kerb, there's a decent chance you also ripped out clips or other fasteners along the way. Get under the car with a flashlight and look at every mounting point before you order. It's a lot easier to buy an extra clip now than to discover a missing one with the new cover held up over your head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat This Cover Actually Does\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll see this part called a few different things, lower engine cover, undertray, splash shield, skid plate, and each name points at part of its job. It closes off the underside of the engine bay, and on a car like this it earns its place three ways. It keeps road spray, water, and debris from being thrown up onto the engine and components that would rather stay clean. It smooths airflow under the front of the car, which matters more on a Type R or Type S than on an ordinary commuter, since the underbody is part of how these cars manage air. And it takes the first hit from whatever you drive over, which is exactly why it's the panel that ends up sacrificed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDriving without one isn't immediately catastrophic, but you're leaving the underside of your engine bay exposed to everything the road throws at it, and you give up the aero and noise benefits Honda engineered in. On a performance car, that underbody airflow is worth putting back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWhy It Gets Damaged So Easily\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoth the FL5 and DE5 use a thin aluminum panel here. Aluminum keeps the weight down low and handles underhood heat better than plastic, but thin is the operative word. This is a light cover, not a skid plate, and that's a big part of why it ends up wrecked. Catch it on a kerb or a parking block and it creases and bends rather than shrugging it off, and a hard enough hit tears it right at the mounting points. None of that is a knock on the part, it's simply what the panel is, and it's why a clean genuine replacement is something so many of these owners end up needing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eGet The Genuine Panel\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a shaped panel with specific mounting points, so fit is the whole story. The genuine Honda piece lines up at every fastener location and sits flush the way it's supposed to, instead of leaving you flexing a universal panel into position and hoping it holds at speed. Given that these come loose or tear away in the first place, starting with a panel that mounts correctly at every point is how you avoid doing this again next season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eFitment\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis aluminum lower engine cover fits the 2023-2027 Honda Civic Type R (FL5) and the 2024-2027 Acura Integra Type S (DE5). Both chassis use this same thin aluminum panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHave a standard Civic or Integra?\u003c\/strong\u003e If you're driving a non-Type R Civic (LX, Sport, EX, Sport Touring, Si) or a non-Type S Integra (Base, A-Spec), this is not your part. Those cars use a different cover, which you can find here: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/honda-22-26-civic-integra-front-lower-engine-cover-74114-t20-a00\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eHonda 22-26 Civic\/Integra Front Lower Engine Cover 74114-T20-A00\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eWho Needs This Cover\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is for the Type R or Type S owner whose cover got scraped, bent, cracked, or torn off, and for anyone who found theirs half-hanging after a kerb, a steep driveway, or a track day. It's a straightforward fix once you've got the panel and the right hardware. Order the cover, grab four bolts, check your clips while you're under there, and put your car back the way it should be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFits:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023-2027 Honda Civic Type R (FL5) and 2024-2027 Acura Integra Type S (DE5). \u003cstrong\u003ePart number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 74114-T60-A00. \u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e thin aluminum. \u003cstrong\u003eAlso known as:\u003c\/strong\u003e lower engine cover, undertray, splash shield, or skid plate. \u003cstrong\u003eHardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e sold separately, requires four bolts, part number OHA-90105-TBA-A00. \u003cstrong\u003eSold:\u003c\/strong\u003e individually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n \n\u003cli id=\"VehicleFitment\"\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e2024-2027 Acura Integra Type S\u003cbr\u003e2023-2027 Honda Civic Type R\u003c\/p\u003e \n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n","brand":"Honda","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":69710916124706,"sku":"OHA-74114-T60-A00","price":194.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2218\/5701\/files\/OHA-74114-T60-A00_pqf7.jpg?v=1794255195","url":"https:\/\/www.hybrid-racing.com\/products\/honda-front-lower-engine-cover-fl5-type-r-de5-type-s-74114-t60-a00","provider":"Hybrid Racing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
