Hello, I am trying to locate a picture what an original apron looks like from underneath so I can make a apron. My car has the H part retained and I would like to keep it intact. I just need to make the flat part and the portion that rolls underneath the car. I think it should have dimples and drain holes underneath but Im not sure. If anyone has pics I would greatly appreciate it.

the apron is far from flat. I would also recommend using a donor for the rest.
