If you have not bought material for the underbody - what do you think about Alucobond?
It's like an industrial version of the Alumalite designed for more strength and better for impact resistance.
It has a solid polymer core rather than corrugated that Alumalite has.
Also, it does a little better for heat resistance - might be nice under the car near exhaust routing.

Downside is that it weighs more... not necessarily bad since it will be ultimately be adding weight so low on the car to reduce your center of gravity

But, the OP got butthurt when guys who actually race cars told him that his car is dangerous...or at least, a false sense of security...
then the OP deleted the pics and tucked tail.

reminds me of when I was a kid... this schoolmate brought in a new toy, thinking he was gonna be the coolest kid in school... and everyone just made fun of him, so he starting crying and left the classroom.

Like, I get it, you wanna brag about your stuff... just don't get all emo when people don't care.

Do the factory fog holes do anything?
Just thinking about it and wondering why not use those holes for the brake coolers instead of the pipes coming through the grill.
Pipes do look cool though - evil look of death ready to cookie cutter a hole through somebody!
