bellypan transition

make a template for a ten-degree wedge out of cardboard and cram it into the front of the Paseo's front tires.Anything that falls below that angled line projecting forward and upward will be scrubbed off the car when going up or down driveway ramps.Its called the approach,ramp,and breakover angle,and is standard practice for all automotive design.Your transition piece cannot fall below that imaginary line or its toast!
