I could probably make 2 versions of the side pieces, on that sits flush under the bumper and one that comes out to match the front splitter I will be doing.

Decals arrived one week late....



Im going to smooth out the profile a bit, notice how it "bumps" in a bit too aggressively half way back.





and without.



One more.



Give me some feedback and we can make some changes.
Damn i love it, any chance of you making any carbon fiber in the future??

Send me some decals my way!

i think the whole point in buying his is that you escape the carbonfiber price tag?

I have no plans to get into the boat building industry (carbon and fiberglass molds)

But I am a fan of the 3M CF wrap stuff, if you got gloss black parts, they would take a CF vinyl wrap very well.

Take a look at these 2 ideas I have for side diffusers, let me know what you think, I'm thinking something more like the bottom design, it would attach at the frame rail and again right below the sil. Not sure if you would want the curve up or down. Maybe worth getting some feedback on.
