There’s less than $5 in plastic on this things, would be a big market if someone made some up. Most owners don’t even have them

It’s been tried and didn’t work out.

If the end-user cost is more than $50 per duct it can’t compete against a replacement factory undertray.

How about this one? Not sure what side this used to be on. The other one is on 635 in Dallas somewhere. Not much left of either belly pan.

Felt bad for the lady when she got here today. That's all that was left attached to the car, you can imagine the noise it made when she was driving down the street. I was like "oh****whatdoIgettodotoday"/

I guess I should edit the OP to clarify that we’re looking for a *complete* un-blended NACA duct.

Sean, did you get the number of the truck that that 928 ran over?

I'm in the 8th week of moving....I took off Easter Sunday.....not to go to church, but to rest. My old bones just couldn't get out of bed...all day.

Anyway, I've run across a couple of places I'd "hidden" ducts away. (I'm still looking for the big box of ducts.....it might be just a dream I had.)

Don't make me think too hard....or walk out to the parts room and look at a new tray....you need the skinny one or the fat one?

I had a day like that last week. Allergies though.

I need a skinny one. I've got extra fat ones. If you find one, put it on Charlie's bill (Mary knows who that is...)

I think, replacing the aluminum under-cat tray will be interesting unless you have extras. I think even Mark is running out.

Right now, I have more skinny ones than fat ones. You want Mary to ship this, Monday?

Still available new.

Mary keeps multiples, with the rear brackets....and we found several used ones, during the moving process/disaster.

Put it on Mary’s desk. I’ll call her on Monday.

Thanks Greg!

Greg...I am looking for a set if you have any available? Just received my new aluminum pan from Mark and now in need a set of ducts to install. I sent you an e-mail as well but didn't realize you were moving!

I'll have Rog or my customer check with Mark on Monday. I'm not a fan of the factory one, aside from the ducts. Much prefer the nice metal one.
