Looks good. Keep up the good work.

Whats next in the process? I have a piece of cardboard all mocked up for the front, don't know if I should fiberglass it or not.

Any more detailed pictures?

Where can I find ABS plastic sheets long enough to make side splitters?? I found one site in particular but they have a sheet 48"x96" which is just ridiculous, although that would be enough to make 2 side splitters and probably just enough for a front splitter.

Your car looks great "as-is"...if it were my car I'd add those DIY side diffusers or save up for carbon downforce sides.

if you can do it with abs sheets that's great in keeping down the cost. if you decide to make up something like chilicokes, the tooling gelcoat, black gel coat, resin, activator, matting, plug will be a lot more, not to mention the headache and time involved. good luck with the project, i have still yet to do the front splitter (i can't find abs sheets locally in the size i want)...
