Caterham lowered floor
I've got a lowered floor on the drivers side of my S3 (not sure why it's called a lowered floor because it's higher then the other
side) which is made from what I can only describe as aluminium waffle.
The theory behind this waffle section is for driver impact protection.
Where's the best place (a.k.a cheapest) to buy a sheet of this so I can cut out the passenger side?
The reason why I want to do this is so that when I carpet it the floor will be level and won't have the reinforcement bars poking through the
carpet.

It's a 2001 1.6 k series de-dion
It's an ex-academy car with the handbrake under the dash.

Yes, that's it - honeycomb
Where's the cheapest place for it?
Or is there some type of alternative?
All I'm trying to achieve is get the floor at the same level. I'm not too worried about the weight.
