Oh. My. F(*$W&%*(ING. God.

You're car is sex and a half on expensive wheels.

Splitter and sides look GORGEOUS!

But for some reason your splitter looks thicker and a lot straighter than mine!

I really like the front splitter, but the side ones look like cheap home made body kits. I see the look you are trying to get from the ZR1, but those things are 3-D and flow much much better with the body.

Ehh... I have vision, that's how I get things made for these cars, I can see the beginning middle and end. Right now you just see the beginning. I foresee minds changed when it is all finished, not all who don't like them, but some.

I didn't want to post pics until after Monday (when I have side splitters on, canards powdercoated and on, car cleaned, etc... all for LA Invasion) but you guys have been waiting awhile so AS LONG AS you don't judge the finished LOOK by what you see in raw aluminum I'll keep these pics up...

Here's what the raw prototypes (still need side mounting screw holes) look like...







They will also have three holes to mount for the top part just still working on placement...

You can order them raw like this (cheapest option), powdercoated a black texture (to look like the ABS splitters) by me or I'll have a third option where I ship them straight to Sean (SilverGhost) to be powdered the color of your choice (some body colored pieces would look good )... Still waiting on pricing though, have to find out how much material will cost (just cut these from scrap).

Here's the front Canard Prototypes on my car...







Since I know some people lack imaginiation I threw some black Gorilla Tape on there just to give you a better visual of the finished product...









I can't wait to get a chance to get it all on

Plexi glass? It's aluminum, might want to upgrade the monitor on your Commodore 64...
