    Looking at an m50 swap car this weekend though. Hopefully have a plate for that soon.
    I'm also interested in M42 skid. Once you have them mocked up, let me know - I would want one with extended coverage (about an extra 12" in length) for the rallycross car, so maybe we can work something out.

      Has anyone mounted this yet with an e36 steering rack? I'm wondering if the mount holes will line up correctly. If you think they will, you have another sale my friend!

        Still trying get a m42 version going. Once i get it going we can talk about "custom" versions.

        I don't see any reason it wouldnt work. E36 racks use the e30 mounting points. Maybe someone can chime in on this.

              It's a lot of fun. It has a rotary axis for cutting tubing too. We've barely scratched the surface of what it can do.

                My recent encounter was at an unmarked construction zone, where there were exposed metal rods that snagged my lower oil pan towards the passenger side corner, effectively splitting that side open at the same time cracking my upper. You could say the crack "crawled" all the way up. :/

                OP Any news for the m42?

                            I will be interested in purchasing an m42 plate when you get them complete. Just letting you know by the looks of it there are between 8-10 people waiting on you :p
