Hello all,

As it turns out, the S1 I recently bought is missing its engine bay undertray. Guess the custom diffuser from alloy should have been a tell tale.
Anyway, all I found on the internet is carbon fibre alternatives. Now, while these are all very nice, they are also very expensive.
So, I am looking for a drawing with dimensions of the undertray. Then I can have the item made from alloy by a friendly sheetworking company.

Anyone can provide me a drawing?

Cheers.

p.s. If you happen to have/ know of an undertray for sale in mint condition that would be also worth considering of course...

I have drawings of one, I've made a few, some with custom cutouts etc.

E-mail me and I can send you drawings and a layflat DXF file for lasercutting of the blank.

The equivalent panel was missing off my S2 when I got it.

I got one off a main dealer for less than £150.

Might be worth a call.

I've got an undertray from an S1. Not mint (car had done 70k miles and a bit of track work). Its in Devon (near Plymouth) at my exes. She wouldn't lift a finger to help me and I'm now in Kent so would need to be collected if of any interest.

Thanx guys, for all the replies. I already received the drawings from George and will contact a friendly metal sheet worker soon.

Just to put things in perspective on this medium called internet: a Dutch guy posts a message on a UK forum, to be helped to a file by a guy from New Zealand. All within 24h. Super!
