Skids & Louvers.
Once the guys in our fabrication shop start cutting sheet
metal, it's hard to get them to stop. Tim felt left out since he didn't
get to take a whack at the body so he decided to whip out some custom skid
panels to cover up all that nifty exhaust work he did (he said something
about aerodynamics). In any case it will save time detailing the underside
later on.
Of course, enclosing those exhaust pipes will trap heat, so
the panels needed to be louvered.
And here's what the skid panels look lilke with the louvers
punched.
