A few years ago we went to the original makers but they said 'no' they did not want to endanger any potential relationship with the new owners. Wonder what the situation is now.

Some men see things as they are and say why - I dream things that never were and say why not.
So what is the consensus - approach the original guys again or try carbon fibre fabricators

Let me guess - you used to be indecisive but now you're not so sure?

Where are we now!!! with this?? Anybody got any info on/position regarding under-tray,s
Looking for a a response here

Whao! Calm down. Unsure from your post what you need to know, but ...
Do you need one?
The thing is there for a reason (well several actually, if you read through the threads here), and they all had them, even if many have gone AWOL, so a good thing to have. No down sides anyway, surely? Sound proofing, under car airflow, cooling airflow through both radiator and the engine bay, keeps all sorts of mechanicals and electronics apart from road salt, water, mud, ice, snow and other detritus, not to mention (some) protection from speed bumps and any random road kills too!
Where to get one.
Big problem is to get one, being NLA from ex-dealers and XPart, and second biggest, if you do find one even second hand, is to pay for it.
I was lucky enough to the buy the actual new NOS one (KRB000151) from AndyG, pictured in his post #48 above, but
I hear the cut down FWD 75/ZT diesel ones are almost just as good, albeit with a bit of work.
Any other option?
As far as an alternative is concerned, having a re-make run didn't look feasible cost-wise, as I recall.
The 'el-cheepo' thin plastic ones on eBay, are really useless, or so I hear from those who have tried them.
... I hope that answers your question, even if perhaps not what you hoped to hear

In other words "Investigate both routes" to determine "Whichever gives best value for money"

Maybe. It depends on which way you look at it but then on the other hand.......In other words "Investigate both routes" to determine "Whichever gives best value for money"

The thought of a carbon fibre undertray sounds great but it may be cheaper to go for the same/similar type to that already fitted to [most] of our cars.
If cost reasonable, then Carbon Fibre
...so says Mr Indecisive
Just don't ask me what's a reasonable price
