Damaged plastic under body tray

[kamold]

I have a colleague with an Audi TT.

The plastic tray under the engine bay is damaged to the point where he had to remove it.

He is considering fabricating a replacement out of aluminium sheet.

Just wondering if there are any ADR or other potential considerations we can't think of that would make this NAGI (not a good idea)?

Dont think so Plenty of after market ones available for 4x4 with no ramifications. Havent seen any rules in the ADR's about them

I think the issue would be what it's mounted to.

The standard plastic one would be screwed to two plastic skirts on the sides, and then a couple of small bolts at the rear on the subframe.

Might require some extra brackets like the Passat Alltracks have with their steel bellypan.

Thanks for the tips guys, will pass them on

If you come up with a good template I would be interested. My TT is lowered 40mm and I crawl over a lay back kerb ,, to get into my driveway which is taking its toll slowly, but surely.
