Why would someone go trought the trouble of getting a AP2 rear for a track only AP1? It's just a stock AP1 rear that has been chopped into half to reduce drag cause by the air that gets "stucked" in it. No show all go mod.

This is a mod that J's Racing also does with their race car. They chop the bumper for their racew diffucer AND in some cases they just make two big square holes in order to iliminate the "parachute rear bumper" effect.

Actually this can be done as well as a DIY job.

Definately not an AP1 bumper. Look at the groove on the side that follows the lines of the lower door. Also, the tow hook hole is square in that picture, AP1 are circles.

Its a modified AP2 bumper.
