fabrication of prototype metal insulation structures available

A supplier that my family's company works with has the ability to quickly prototype and build metal structures.

I've seen mention in other threads of the need for battery boxes for phev conversions, and I thought of something.

If anyone has an idea for a mod in terms of metal shielding (with or without insulation) or structure and you can supply a completed design of what you want, I can get the first one made at material cost relatively quickly.

Underbody metal sheet to divert air flow?
Clamp/bolt on shields to keep air from hitting the radiator/other areas?
Custom insulated/ventilated battery boxes

I don't have the know-how to design such things, but if you do.. let me know.

(this doesn't include anything like structural supports or stuff like bt plates, just fabricated sheet metal)

If you can submit a design, this is well within what can be made.

For me to get it done for little cost would involve as little or no effort for the supplier as possible. Ideally no more than emailing the design which he inputs into his program for the laser and other machines to make the part. Its really that easy, this supplier makes parts for commercial airplanes, snowmobiles, etc, so I thought it would be a good resource.

Not sure if this would apply to anything that you would want to see externally.
