I decided to make my own frunk. I bent some galvanised steel conduit and flattened the ends to pick up on the same holes the aftermarket frunks do. I then riveted a length of t shaped extruded aluminium between the 2. Cut an oil resistant plastic container to allow for the slope of the bonnet then drilled, and for now temporarily attached as I'm gonna install some plastic expanding trim rivets another day, to the cross member. I'm gonna attach another container to the right as you see it that will go deeper as there's a large void in front of the 12v battery that will hold my ring tyre inflator and the rest of my Tesla UMC ( granny charger ).

Very nice, all we need now is a 3D model of something similar we could all print at home.
I would use the bolts on the silver bars as mounting points and make the storage go a little further into the cavity to increase storage space and include a lid for weather protection.

Just done that last night to fit my Tesla UMC and ring tyre inflator, just gotta add a bit of a basic weather protector for the top now. We have some thin flexible rubber matting at work so thinking I'll attach it at the front edges and let it just sit on top.
