Yes.

Directly under the radiator is where the air deflector bolts up. It does not extend out past the front or rear of the lower radiator support. This is the piece that hits parking stops and is spring loaded to prevent breakage.

These cars never used a shield underneath the engine as far as I know. European brands are most likely to be found with that type of setup. On our W-bodies, you can see the ground all around the engine / trans from up top.
