Mark, where does one source such a rear end skid plate?

Do you have a link to a specific part? How about a photo of the plate on your M3W?

Thanks so much!

One thing not mentioned that I believe is essential but not designed or even thought about is a hidden rear end tail scuff/skid plate.

The tail of the car is quite some way aft of the centre of the rear wheel, which means that if/when the rear wheel drops either down a kerb or rain gully or ramp the rear will catch or scrape. Ive witnessed this on a number of M3Ws and experienced it myself.
It's a simple cure to save the back end and rolled seam at the tail.
By the time you realise you need one it's simply too late.
