Does anyone have a contact with a pressed-sheet-metal firm that can press one-off customised shapes?

Can't say what it is... it'd be a surprise ;) but you wouldn't want one Phil i'm sure lol. I kind of imagined i could make/design the tooling for the job, but wanted to know prices to see if they'd outweigh the hassle of doing it myself. You able to find a number for them phil? Are they within a reasonable distance from you?

I may be able to get some contact details of a customer in work. I've seen some of his work, looks very good. But I suppose it would, he makes exhaust systems for the MP4-12C special editions
