An air dam for a vehicle having a front panel with a downward facing surface at a lateral front edge. At least one air curtain such as an air jet forces air downward toward the ground for creating an aerodynamic barrier of air which reduces turbulence caused by the underbody of a vehicle while the vehicle is underway.

A vehicle rear portion includes a resin rear exterior member, a metal exhaust finisher, and a reinforcing block. The rear exterior member is provided at a rear portion of a vehicle body. The exhaust finisher is provided at a terminating end portion of an exhaust pipe. The reinforcing block is fixed to the exhaust finisher and attached to the rear exterior member. The reinforcing block has an upper side portion that straddles an upper side of the exhaust finisher in a vehicle width direction, an inner side portion that extends downward from an inner region of the upper side portion in the vehicle width direction, and an outer side portion that extends downward from an outer region of the upper side portion in the vehicle width direction.

An automotive vehicle includes a body having fore and aft portions. The vehicle includes a bumper beam coupled to the vehicle body proximate the fore portion and a heat exchanger disposed aft of the bumper beam. A fascia assembly is coupled to the vehicle body and extends about the bumper beam. The fascia assembly includes a fascia inlet configured to direct an airflow from the exterior of the fascia assembly to the interior of the fascia assembly. An energy absorption member is disposed between the fascia and the bumper beam. An air passage extends through at least one of the bumper beam and the energy absorption member. The air passage extends from an air passage inlet to an air passage outlet. The air passage inlet is positioned downstream of the fascia inlet with respect to the airflow, and the air passage outlet being positioned upstream of the heat exchanger.

A front end part is for a motor vehicle. The front end part has: a front end part outer skin element, which has an air inlet opening, the air passage opening being closeable by a closure device, the closure device having a closure element, which is adjustable between a closed position and an open position; and a protective element, which is arranged adjacent to the air inlet opening in a transverse direction of the motor vehicle and projects in front of the front end part outer skin element in a longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle. The closure element in the closed position is arranged flush with the front end part outer skin element. The front end part outer skin element and the protective element, arranged in front of the front end part outer skin element in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle, delimit an air duct.

An air guiding system for a vehicle including an air guide duct having at least one air inlet, the air guide duct further having a first air outlet, a second air outlet, and an internal flow splitter. The flow splitter is disposed within the air guide duct such that a first portion of incoming air flows to the first and second air outlets, and a second portion of incoming air flows through the flow splitter. The first air outlet is configured to discharge air into one of the pair of opposing front wheel wells and the second air outlet is configured to discharge air into another of the pair of opposing front wheel wells. A further aspect of the disclosure provides an underbody tray including a plurality of openings configured to allow airflow through the underbody tray, the underbody tray being disposed below the air guide duct.

An air guide seal arrangement adapted to be located between a bumper fascia and a cooler of a vehicle. The air guide seal arrangement includes a first member and a second member. The first member has a first irregularly shaped edge portion, shaped to seal against an inner surface of the bumper fascia, and a second regularly shaped edge portion being located opposite to the first edge portion. The second member has a first regularly shaped edge portion and a second edge portion, being located opposite to the first edge portion, shaped to seal against a forwards-facing surface of the cooler. At least one of the first member and the second member is resilient. The first member and the second member form two separate members adapted to be held together solely by being pressed together in use.

A front end part is for a motor vehicle. The front end part has: a front end part outer skin element, which has an air inlet opening, the air passage opening being closeable by a closure device, the closure device having a closure element, which is adjustable between a closed position and an open position; and a protective element, which is arranged adjacent to the air inlet opening in a transverse direction of the motor vehicle and projects in front of the front end part outer skin element in a longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle. The closure element in the closed position is arranged flush with the front end part outer skin element. The front end part outer skin element and the protective element, arranged in front of the front end part outer skin element in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle, delimit an air duct.

A vehicle body front structure includes a front bumper face positioned in front of a front bumper beam, wherein the front bumper face includes an upper face member provided with a license plate mounting portion, and a lower face member provided with an external air introduction opening. The vehicle body front structure further includes a front panel positioned above the upper face member.

A duct 20 includes: wall portions 24, each of which defines a corresponding one face of an air flow path 22 leading air from an air inlet 20a to an air outlet 20b; and groove portions 26, which are provided on at least two of the wall portions 24, 24, respectively, and extend so as to cross an air flow direction of the air flow path 22, and the groove portions 26 are independent from each other for every wall portion 24, and have a concave shape so as to thin the wall portions 24.

An extension of a grille extends rearward and in a left-right direction of a vehicle. The extension is located rearward from a grille body and below a ventilation hole. An extension rear edge is arranged above a structure front upper edge. An extension front edge at which the grille body and the extension are connected to each other is arranged below the structure front upper edge. The extension is inclined from the extension front edge toward the extension rear edge. The extension includes weak portions that divide the extension into a plurality of sections in the left-right direction.
