So they switched to FRP but the gurney flap option is still available in dry carbon. "It is what it is" as they say. I was disappointed at first but after thinking about it I am just pleased to see them use a material that is easier to maintain ha-ha.

Powerhouse Amuse - Gurney Flap Option for Rear Wing

We also discovered that the Amuse Vestito front bumper includes an integrated front diffuser:

I would guess that is what the square cut-out is for towards the back. The Top Secret diffuser I had on my 350Z had a similar cut-out (but with a cover). Seems a tad small, but not surprising given the Japanese seem to make everything small....

Sorry for the late reply guys. Hunter is actually going back to school so he's no longer with us at Bulletproof; I'll be helping you guys out moving forward

It looks like jran76 is on the right track. The cut out looks to be a bit small but we'll need to see want the first owners of these kits think. Since these bumpers are frp, it's easy to make it a bit bigger if needed.

This kit blows everything else out of the water; can't wait till we get them in! I'll keep you guys updated. Feel free to pm me anytime if you have any questions!
