    Guess that points to the first action should be to re-approach the original manufacturer - thanks Brian

    Glassfibe would be a good route if enough people were interested.

    The only advantage of Carbon would be a weight saving.
    With 260/400 bhp only viable on a Race Car to gain 100th of a sec.

    I have done a lot of Glass work and as Brian says time consuming.

    If any one is in great need, I have a spare one. (260s members only)

    If my memory serves correctly (doubtful) the undertray from a 1.8T will fit but it doesn't go under the engine, just the front part. But if you were in desperate need it might do.

    I think a carbon fibre one would work out very expensive. To get a similar thickness to what we have now you'd be looking at about 6 layers. Although 3 layers would give enough strength. You could also use a carbon fibre/glass layering or even a kevlar carbon layering, but again costs would determine that. The most cost effective would be the carbon glass fibre sandwich but is looked upon as cheating and cheap

    Default Original Manufacturer

    I put you on to him originally in Manchester area

    He has been selling fixings on eBay recently so I doubt that he is too worried about new owners and relationships

    Give him another go but dont waste his time asking for one undertray

    He is a manufacturer not an enthusiast
