Yep! Another diy be me, canards?

To the ricer comments, while this may be a bit extreme for a street car, this is for functional reasons while tracking. It doesn't have to be pretty it just has to work! I guess all the guys running huge APR wings on their track cars are ricers..

Nice job

likely refer here in the future when my 370 is no longer my daily and needs more aero.

That's because there are people on here that don't know the difference between functional and just for looks. That's why I loose a brain cell every time I see a car with stretched tires and hella flush setups on a 30k sports car. I respect everyone's style but to make ghetto or rice comments a on a functional mod, keep that crap to yourself.

Lol notice sig pic! Any track guy feels like me and any look guy feels like the negative above people.

at the ricer comments. I wouldn't have something that big on the front of my car and even if I did, it wouldn't be raw CF. But it ain't my car so what I would or wouldn't do is immaterial. Synolimit did an excellent job - the fit and finish look very professional.

Too much for my taste? Yep (not that it matters).
Ricer? Nah. My definition of ricer includes the term "non-functional." If they were on my car, which seldom gets above 80 on straightaways and I don't think I've ever gone through a turn fast enough to need canards, that would be ricer.

Looks good man, been following your DIY mods. Like your other mods, everything looks professional.

Is that plasti-dip or vinyl? I thought your car was silver? Either way the matte white looks good. I thought about it but the vinyl guy quoted $3K.

I'm on fencing about either cutting a hole in the center of the hood like you or paint an aftermarket cf hood. Leaning towards custom hood vent (no pins to deal with and potential fitment issues). Need to cool the super hot engine for FI.

Thanks.

Its dip. Yeah FI needs a vent for sure. The turbo needs a blanket too if you can fit it.

Nice. Been following the thread to see what you came up with. Looks good dude.
