Make a sorta rear flat bottom/undertray/diffuser sorta thing out of say 3~4mm thick plastic type stuff.........
Would if I warmed it up with an air dryer, I be able to push a bit of a dished shape into it to clear the diff ?
eta
This sorta stuff ?

You could definitely do it with a hot air stripper, press it over the dog bowl Jon.

That'll explain the hump then
If a hot air gun will soften the plastic then won't the heat from the engine bay cause it to sag over time?
It's going under the diff, it's quite a bit away from the engine bay

Extra slit in that bonnet
Back to the plastic - eyes front all you droolers!
Jon it will bend with hot air gun - you might want to borrow a couple with mates atached if you are wanting to make a large bump-we have an oven at
work and the kids do plug and yoke moulding which is a bit like vac forming without the need for a vacuum forming machine.
If you start getting a rubbery smell it is probably getting a bit on the hot side.
4 mm will be fine -we use this thickness in abs for wheelarch extensions as it is rigid enough to look like body work but flexible enough not to take
off an innocent by standers leg.
BTW What size will your product be as we have a vac former too but it won't cope with massive things- makes battery box covers etc
