Could you not just make an exact stencil of flat floor with no holes? I'd buy it

Been a while since i updated this, not much had gone on since the car failed the mot for a number of things. I did consider stripping and scraping it but after picking up the new Lexus is250 i decided to keep this just as something to mess about with and work on in my free time.
The cars just sat for a while but as ive got a couple of weeks off work id better make an effort to get shit sorted 
Replaced the rotten sills, rebuilt the wheels with Radinox lips all round, plumbed up the new struts etc, and have put a lot of effort into cutting, flaring, and rolling all the body work to get the car to sit lower.
few instagram pics for you if anyones interested, i mainly post on there now rather than use forums/facebook
the car as it sits now.


front wing/arch, these wheels are 15x7.5 roughly et15 ish


rear arch

and a photo from PVS2013 showing how low i could previously go.. even then it was chewing the tyres

and now, these rear wheels are 15x9 roughly et 0

Looks ace, but cant help thinking it needs some type of side skirt, just something subtle/simple, to help maintain a level between the front and rear bumpersif you know what I mean.
