    I'm curious to see how it looks in that "stance" if you have any pics.

    Your skid plate design definitely appears to be a very well thought out and very good design when compared to others available on the current market.

    Ever think of designing a complete bolt in under carriage chassis plates for aerodynamics sake? The design would incorporate flat "plates" that would encapsulate the floor pans, driveshaft tunnel and rear areas and would basically make the entire underside of the car "smooth" (similar to what modern day Indy & other race cars use).

    Have you attempted an oil change yet with the part installed? If so, how did the oil change go, meaning, did any oil end up on the top side of the plate?
    See pix for stance, Oil change went fine. I think I will work on getting the m42 and DOHC plates done first and then look at other cars/BMWs that need these.

    cant wait to get a plate for 24v, oil-pan fear has been keeping my ride height conservative...

    Erik, I have a m42. I am also very local to you. Would you be interested in maybe coming by or I could come by sometime this week and test fit and get measurments on an m42 car?

    I might be interested in this part sometime down the road and it seems like there are some others guys interested in this part as well for the 318is.

    That is however if you didnt already get someone, just let me know!
    mayhem, i doubt youre gonna get one for free, so settle down.
