Smooth Underbody
 
Completed everything in about 4hrs working time yesterday. Let me know what you think. I haven't driven (or even started the car) since install.

Car on Ramp:

Mockup:

Creating areas for the exhaust heat to escape:

I zip tied everything in place:

I went through quite a lot of zip ties today, no?

You're evil.

An A-B-A test would be possible if I had an easy way to get underneath the car. (and a safe place to stow the panel while I tested without it...)

They're only zip tied in a few places...

I'll put some thought into it. Seriously. (Probably not... ;) )

Lol.

Great minds think alike. :thumbup:

Just two weeks ago, I used foam, stucco screen and zips for the under pan on my metro also...

Will be posting pic's and hard numbers when I get back from vacation.

Where do you think I got the idea for the screening??? :) I can't take credit for that one at all.

That is the nicest thing I have been called all day!

I need better friends, like more existent, that would be good.

Didn't you get under the car once? :)

Nobody expects you to A-B-A a modification like that, but I really do want to know about the ramps!

Needing to use a floor jack and jack stands to change my oil pan, I thought that it would be useful to put two railroad ties on short legs, put a ramp in front, and park my car on that before doing work, but your ramps seem much simpler!

Excellent. And the Cucc finds a job!
