Interest in aluminum custom front undertray replacement?

[SDPLV]

Would absolutely buy this. Just tore mine to shreds and spent time on the garage floor this week removing what was left of all 3 parts. Car doesn't feel as planted when near/over 80mph.

Trying to gauge your guys interest, but anyone here be interested in having there part powder coated black. This would add a small layer of corrosion protection to the part.

Below is a sample of what this would look like, I'm getting one of the 11 made that will have this, so you guys can decide.

I'll try to get the price increase minimal.

I could probably pass on the powdercoat.

My preference would be black coated but it's not a strong preference because this isn't a part that is visible unless you're under the car. Price would be my deciding factor between the two.

Those undertray pieces definitely make a difference in keeping the car planted and also with the cooling.

I tore my center undertray off before and I noticed the difference as well.

As I mentioned earlier, I think it'd be better as a 3D molded undertray to match the design of the existing one.

Well its not so much for Aesthetics its more for pitted corrosion resistance.

Wet weather, or Snow with Salt on the roads will make you part look like this over time.

I would prefer the corrosion protection. Count me in for one powder coated.

if price difference is minimal, powdercoating sounds good.

Has a price point and rough timeline of when people can jump in on the first batch been established?

Ive seen some of these threads pop up before and I am tired of buying that felt part. I'm at the point of getting sheet aluminum and making it myself.

[shimmy23]

not interested in the powdercoating. No one is gonna see this piece.

how much does it weigh?

Price point I'm looking at:

$325 For just the Sheet and the Brackets at the edges, No Ducts, No hardware, Powder coated black.
$300 Non Powder Coated with Duct work (NO LONGER OFFERED)
$350 Powder Coated with eveything.

Plus shipping from Texas 77386, Ill get better details on Shipping once I have all the packing details wrapped up but I'm estimating East cost or west coast from my local is about $35-$45 based on weight and size but please don't hold me to this.

[Bruuuce]

1st round of parts will be done by Thursday.

Does the $300 option come with hardware? My cars isnt near coastal air nor gets driven in the winter so powder-coating isnt a priority.

Did I miss the info about the duct work? Are they those black pieces on top of it?
What does it do? I was picturing something like brake ducts or something.

[Slambo]

Yes its the Black and Gray Plastic it, you can see the front one I'm pointing to. Both the front and back seals allow the flow of air to go in thru the front of the car and down and out thru the vents. Without this here it creates a back pressure zone and spot where the air goes everywhere.

Mines not as curved as the exit side is on the OEM part since this is angled channel, but the channel of air is already curved up higher in the engine bay, my goal here was to maintain the sealed air zone.

i'm in for 350

[Powashiftin]

I still don't understand if the Lower and right under carriage pieces can be removed with this metal piece?

[kamber]

Can someone post reviews, pictures, how it looks and feels on the car as soon as you get yours? Mainly concerned about stability/heat above 70-80. Thanks and like everyone I am very interested. Just slow to adapt.
