Custom Skid Plates made

I make skid plate for E30s and other BMWs. I have been asked to make them for the Mini. I need a car. If you or some you know is local and is willing to help out your fellow enthusiast let me know. Thanks
Here is some of my work. I also make braces.

It looks like you do nice work. I would love to have one but my early model (R53) has a power steering fan with fan ducting that would need to be accounted for. If this fan fails it can cause some major issues. Maybe you already know about them but this is a major bone of contention for me. If I were to have a skid plate it would need to address this fan ducting issue. You may have better luck with the newer models. I would give you part numbers to look at but I can't seem to find them anymore.

I did take that in to account. I will post up pix as soon as the final is done.

Very cool. I know there are others interested so be sure to post in the general forums too. As you can see, this area is sparsely populated.
