Thanks! I need to get some more, too. I'd like to do some more smoothing on the underside -- though for part of it, I need to get aluminum.

BTW, I have a small addition and change to the rear under pan, to make it shallower and prevent air from getting in above it. I'll take some pictures next time I have it up on the ramps. (I bought a pair, along with two wood beaded seat covers at my local auto parts store!)

In starting to read the Hucho book, I'm wondering if removing the plastic rocker panel thingies on my car would be a small help? I would imagine that the air is coming out from under the car, and a smoother radius might be a bit better?
