Do you plan on making more of these? I want one! A rogue grapefruit sized stone took out one of my trans's. I think this will sell before I'll be ready to buy it. Do u got a pic with the car on the ground? I wanna see how far below the bumper it hangs.

 

[bobdole]

I can make more yes. I don't have any pictures of it on the ground yet. I will post soon. Also if you don't want any vents in it. Just a blank skid plate it would be $345.00 shipped.

 

[MellowVR4]

Are the vents needed? will it really help with the heat?

 

[bobdole]

Helps with heat for sure. Vents out the heat from the engine.

 

[MellowVR4]

You cut the vents with a laser machine?

 

[bobdole]

Hand tools. I tried to find a local shop to use a water jet, but the setup fee is very high.

Awesome!

Your car looks clean, what wheels are you currently running?

Thanks. Volk TRE7V 17 8.0 25 offset.

Charles not dogging on the design and looks good but you might be able to add a flat plate on the bottom under the slots to create a vacuum effect to draw out even more heat. Like blowing an air hose in a piece of pipe. As the nozzle moves away from the pipe or into the pipe extra air is drawn in to the pipe for flow. But would require a bunch of temp sensors to test to see if the results are even noticeable so I'll shut up now. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Oh Curtis...You would say that.

Bob, would you be willing to make one without the vents just to save you time? I would cut my own, but wondering if this would lower cost.

 

[bobdole]

It would cost less. $345.00 shipped. There is some welding involved and hardware. Wish I could make it cheaper. Takes a lot to make a nice pc.

If any of these are available in the spring, i'll probably pick one up without the vents/holes in it. I can put holes in aluminum myself. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I been following your other thread I really want one of those skid plates for the front, are the skid plates a bolt on or do you have to drill holes for they skid plate?

 

[bobdole]

They are a bolt on. Comes with all hardware to mount.

 

[ghostinthevr4]

Time for me to start saving up then.

 

[bobdole]

Added some new pics. Just got back from the powder coat. Spark silver finish.
