I am interested, but our competition regulations in Australia call for the leading edge of the splitter to fall within the verical plan view of the OEM bumper, so the splitter needs to be constructed wthin this constraint. The sample photo does not make it clear how far forward the splitter protrudes ...

Dude you're killing me.. I know that fascia is on there.. with the canards.. and it's like you're dangling a donut in front of me.. WTF? I know you didn't have a camera out there.. but someone had to!

I keep seeing teaser pics and videos that show nothing.. I'm beginning to think I should put my hat back on.. uhh.. and find a cat I can do the same..

Travis, that diffuser looks perfect, can I buy one?

travisjb 01-20-2011 08:32 AM

it was made by kent porter of precision chassis works in mesa, az... it is a one-off... i'd be willing to let him borrow the part if he wants to try and replicate it... give him a call

NewYorkJon34 01-20-2011 01:58 PM

Can you take a picture of the rear, I wanna see how it will look. I don't know if it will fit with my fast intentions exhaust

travisjb 01-20-2011 02:19 PM

will this weekend - don't have car right now... definitely will not fit without modifications, can assure you of that...

NewYorkJon34 01-20-2011 02:47 PM

Thanks bro, your diffuser looks awesome, more companies should look at that diffuser and start designing from there.

You mean rice car standards since most of us only drive street. :icon17: for race app im sure its fine.

NYBladeZ 01-20-2011 06:02 PM

I always defined the "rice car standard" as "not functional." If the piece i.e. a large race wing is functional it wouldn't be rice. Then again I guess on the street the only way to really prove its not rice is to leave the dude, but I wouldn't condone that.

Btw, the pics have "expired" please provide new link because I'm definitely interested.

kenchan 01-20-2011 06:29 PM

Well, wat I meant as a joke was that at street speeds im not sure how functional it would be. For race im sure it is functional. That's all.

NYBladeZ 01-20-2011 07:20 PM

don't worry I took it lightly, its just that "ricer" has been thrown around for years, I'm sure many forgot what it means
