Dayum, awesomeness. That might work well for a potential brake duct as well, thanks for the info.

I think that it looks ugly! you will have to have on both sides.
It looks like a riced out Honda .
Id rather have the stillen bumper

It's just a prototype right now. Not even a finished product. I myself am not sure I am sold on it yet. However, I talked to Sam today and he said that it can be whatever we want it to be. ie. rolled, CF, molded etc. I also told him that if I went this route, it WOULD DEFINITELY have to be on the other side as well. He said that it would be on the other side for the intake, so not to worry, it would balance it out. I think it would look better molded in so it looks stock. If I purchase the amuse kit, not sure how that would look.

If on both sides, maybe, on Amuse, no.
Need more pics.

I'd say that would work better as a draw for fresh air to cool brakes rather than an oil cooler like that??

Put one on each side ducted to the brakes and I'm sure the track guys will go nuts.

At this point the CF would give it the 'bling' factor you need. But to me its hella Function > Form. I love it.

shaun66 · 12-09-2010, 10:03 AM

It would look a lot better molded me thinks.

wishihadnav · 12-09-2010, 10:43 AM

Dixon is right that this is just a prototype on the GTM car..Sam is planning to have another one on the right side for the intakes..it can be painted, molded whatever you like.
