The SS/SC did not come with a guard down there. Although you will get pitting and bent fins on your intercooler, for the most part you would be okay. I know when I had my SS/SC, I always wanted the lower grill like the 2.4L guys had because I wasn't a big fan of the open look and I would have liked the extra protection in winter.

To each their own.
