WoW, those look really good! Wasn't expecting that, even in the front. Looks very promising!

Maybe this has been answered but I'm assuming they are being offered separate from the splitter for maximum adjustability?

Any thoughts on offering the canards and splitter as one piece all made from the abs? (Looks great as is though)

attaching them would mean taking away the adjustability factor so that cant be done. and yes they are being offered separately

They are done and in the pics as well just didn't put on the car because I don't have side splitters on yet (every set I made was pre-sold).

I drop canards off for powder first thing in the morning, hope to get the side splitters on at some point tomorrow so that Friday I can have a "finished 6LE Package" to display...

Couldn't wait to put the canards on so I did it tonight... Tried to take pics, thought they came out ok but they SUCK

Here they are anyways...















Working General Hospital tomorrow and have to try to get out to Sun Valley to pic stuff up for Invasion... I'll try to get pics before the sun goes down but no promises.

Looks 1000xs better in person though (with the canards)

Sorry guys and gals, too many threads to keep up with and I don't want each person's individual thread with my product turning away from their car in general with my splitters and just into another "my splitters" thread...

So, all the pic updates are in now and I'll post them all here...

https://ls1tech.com/forums/appearanc...y-sale-13.html

It is an appearance mod and like all appearance mods some people like them, some don't. Some would want them thicker like a GFX (which is WAY beyond my resources to produce), others, like myself, would rather have the "functional look" like it is less refined and straight off the track.


These are an appearance mod, in the appearance section and all I ask everyone is that you judge them off the finished product (in the above link) as opposed to parts on cars of customers who were kind enough and had the faith and vision to order these parts before the canards were ready...

Anyways, I'm out of this thread but here's a teaser of what's in the other...

Looks good but I think you stuck those sides out a lil too much and I only think the canards will look good if you have a wider tire on the car. Your's don't much stick out of the body. Heres a couple pics of mine

i just don't like how the front of the LT1 is curved up, so you get that gap in the front..
