Like usual I am waiting and watching from a far distant land to the north at the centre of the North American continent.

Bad News:
I apologize for posting this info too prematurely.
Machine shop is always too busy to work on afew projects I had given them. They based their priority on their biggest account customer.

They had agreed to work on the project but they also have family they would like to see at the end of day.

I dont blame them but I may have to find another place..

Also I had put this project on the back burner.
Money is the tight so budget is one of my biggest issue with getting multiple projects in production.

Getting enough materials for all that are interested will cost me more than I have in my bank account. So I have been looking around for loans.

Good News:
I have not abandon anything, just reorganized the priority list.
This is still on my list of things to do. It will be done once I have the budget for it.

This is something we will have to exercise patience.

Bank doesnt want to let me borrow money til I own something worthy of collateral. If I had money I wouldnt need to borrow money.

I now have a couple of friends that are taking 'Tech Shop' (a place where they have every tools & equipments to make parts/things with CNC machines, 3d scanners, etc.) You pay monthly to attend & trained personal assist you with how to. I may either get a membership or have my friends help me. I see the light at the end of the tunnel!

I also need to confirm RA SB under tray is the same as on the sedan.
If there are variation(s) I would have to design one around both or have to do two designs.

Isn't that the truth!

I have a SB and I'm 99% sure it's identical (the front end all the way to the rear door jam is identical I think).

Thanks for the input. Hopefully, that 1% doesnt come back to kick our ass.

I found one that already sells online specifically for our car, and guess what it fits the sedan and the sportback as well. Here is the link.

that plate does look like a plain sheet screwed onto the car !

i have access to a sheet metal shop and one of the guys has made a full truck basicly from the ground up so a simple skid plate shouldn't be much of an issue and i think i can get them on board with this if there is real "need"

If you can get them made with
-SST drain cover
-Oil Filter Cover
-Oil Drain Bolt Cover
-Vent to cool SST from under panel (similar to stock)
-Holes for two tow hook, jack point, & under panel vent.

I will buy one.
