If you are confident in your work just get it engineered.

BTW, my car is illegally modified but I'm prepared to wear it if I get defected.
Yes, I've seen people whinge loudly when they've had it pointed out that the "lowest fixed point" under the car is actually below the level of their rims. They honestly can't see what the problem is...

Hint: "flat tyre"...
