Default Under engine shield/guard

I haven't seen this discussion topic yet - has anyone installed any metal guards underneath their engine? This piece covers or replaces the plastic piece nearest to the floor, similar to a brush guard, but more integrated into the car. A good example is in the upper left hand corner of this webpage on the RX350 there.

Does it have an official name?

That part is available in Europe and Australia. IIRC the price was around $500. Add in shipping and the final cost would be closer to $700. And it's plastic, not metal.
