I like the concept too. (I get tired of taking the stock piece on and off every time i do an oil change)
I'm just concerned its not large enough to comfortably get the job done.
Anyone changed their filter through the opening yet?

There is plenty of room, I work on these cars all day long
Reaching the filter is a little bit of a pain, but not enough so that I would consider removing the whole piece. I just have to use a filter wrench, because I cannot get much leverage through the door.
Thanks for letting us now it fits with the Buddy club front bumper!
It clears fine with the GTspec V1 bar, The spec 2 which you probably have sits lower. I have had a few people that have spaced it to work with it as you did.
If I make the shield to fit with the GTSpec V2 lower tie brace it would sit so low you would lose all your ground clearance.
I have seen people move the GT spec bar to the rear of the subframe also which allows proper mounting of the shield.
Order placed! Need a replacement, badly. . . Actually, I don't even have an undertray right now!
Try order on without the trap door. If you run a large oil filter mine is a PH3985 to go on my oil cooler adapter the trap door is pointless. Since its a 2 piece design, it is actually simple to remove just the backhalf for an oil change.
Also the trap door bolts hit my GT spec bar, removing the bar soon, and i know it will hit the oil pan i'm buying next.

You can use shorter bolts in the oil door so it clears. I normally send the short bolts in the doors but I ran out for a bit and was sending them out with the longer bolts. Most people don't require the shorter bolts.
It will not hit your pan unless it's some custom new thing out I don't know about
If you need the shorter bolts feel free to PM me your info and I will send you some out.

Not worried about bolts, just to lazy to go find a couple at the hardware store. The nutplates actually hit the brace too, before the bolts are installed. APS pan is next, much bigger than stock.

This is version 1 ZSpeed Shroud with the APS Pan, Note that with the V2 there is an additional 3/4" or so of clearance as the forward bend in the picture has been taken out to give the additional clearance.
However with the APS pan it does interfere with getting to the oil filter as the pan extends out under the filter.
