liking the bellypan, I really need to get to building one myself, but of course life has something else in mind for me, such as both my son and I being very sick at the moment... just in time to force me to not be able to drive down and spend thanksgiving with my mother and the rest of my family...

This user did a complete smooth pan but I really wanted to reuse the old air dam as much as possible. At the time, I didn't want to invest a whole lot of money into the project as this was one of my first attempts at a new/different air dam. Also, I installed a transmission cooler that I wanted to git air to and a completely flat one didn't seem like a good choice at the time. Who knows...I might eventually go in that direction but I'm pretty happy with the abuse my current setup can take.
Also...with my current setup, I can experiment with different configurations without a whole lot of new materials or designs.
Sorry to hear about you being sick and not being able to spend time with yer family. Hope you git well soon!!
