Red face my $25 one piece underpanel

So I wasn't going to spend $100+ for a pre cut sheet of plastic and some nuts and bolts for a 15 year old car that's going to see some track time, so I ordered myself a sheet of ABS and made my own for ~$25. The sheet of ABS was $22, and the hardware was about $5 from advance auto.

No real DIY, the pictures should explain themselves. Thanks for looking

the ABS sheet uncut




step one, traced the shape of the mouth on the backside of the cover


laid down the lamb chops to shape the backside of the panel
