Can anybody tell me that this "W" shaped brace is called on the underbody of the 350. Where the red arrow is pointing too.

Also, are there any after market companies that have a replacement for this?

 

is yours rusty?

dont think there are any aftermarket parts for that

 

Yeah it is, plus the previous owner must have ran over something because there is some damage to it.

 

the tunnel stay............your local nissan dealer parts depart or order from courtesy like ed posted.........

I have seen peeps replace this often from road damage, bent and deformed..etc...

Sweet thanks for the help guys,

After reading a few threads it seems like that part does often get damaged or rusted. I'm just curious as to why no aftermarket company has come up with a stronger stiffer solution. Because if I have to change it, I would rather change it to something better, you know what i mean?

 

Absolutely, but it serves no functional purpose beyond protection... most aftermarket is geared to performance / aesthetics... it shouldn't be that expensive and unless you're a retard / previous driver was and the car is DD/winter driven, it should last you 80k no problem. So that means really... if you bought your car brand new, you'll swap it once probably.

I didn't bother clicking the link, i bet that thing is so over-priced though lol.
