A lining component (10) according to the invention for the underbody of a motor vehicle is disposed in the region beneath a component of the exhaust system. The lining component (10) comprises at least one inlet opening (22) for the air flow that develops along the underbody (2) when the motor vehicle moves. In the center section thereof, the lining component (10) projects over the surrounding underbody (2) and thus ensures sufficient distance from the exhaust system (8) located above. In order to cool the exhaust system, an inlet opening (22) for the underbody flow is provided at the front section of the lining component. The inlet opening (22) can be closed entirely or partially by a flap (26) and/or a labyrinth-like air guide. In a further embodiment of the invention, a plurality of openings are provided on the underside of the lining component (10), which enable heat dissipation from the space between the exhaust system (8) and lining component (10) in the manner of gills or louvers.
