im going to be making my own panels and was wondering when i panel the underside do i panel it all or do i have to leave the prop showing for mr IVA man?

thanks

I left mine uncovered as I didn't want a trap collecting massive amounts of water, stones, leaves etc. etc.!

Cheers,
James

Mine is completly flat from the front under the engine right to the back.

ahh right thanks
but how does mr IVA man know that the fuel & break lines are ok and secured properly ?

thanks

I would expect he will judge it on how well they are secured on the rest of the build, and you could take photos.

A few photos will reassure him

Most people have a removable top (mine is velcro'd) which also comes in handy for checking the prop bolt tightness every few hundred miles for the first few months of driving
