BlackC230Coupe - can you give us a little better deal on it since it would be closer to the 3 fins style oppose to coming up higher on the bumper. I think we are starting to get some interest. 4 thus far and I know you will be able to produce a wonderful product and quick too. Your track record shows it and many forum members trust your work and products.

All, I have no problem with doing some PhotoShop studies of possible design early next week. I believe we can get a lot more interest from forum members once they get some visualization, and possibly vote for one that most will agree on. This is a rare chance to a piece made so I want to make some contributions

+1. I'm with you on that Alan...I'll tried to do a few myself and post it here. We need to stick to the lower part of the bumper per BlackC230Coupe stated.

The price would not change, unless it was a regular 3 or 4 fin style. However if you want that center vent integrated its a totally different ball game. That type of style i cannot change the price really. I can try, maybe it will go down $100? but I would say not more then that at all.

I hear you...I just wanted to get more people interested if it is a bit less. $-100 is good with me. BlackC230Coupe I know for sure he will get in done in a timely manner and a good product. So let get started. Alan will do a mock up and maybe myself over the weekend and we will post it up.

thats why you pay through paypal. if ur not satisfied you can return it and paypal will refund you upon delivery of the return no matter wat the seller says. can you post the link to this ebay item?

The guy who sells these parts on eBay from China clearly discloses that all items are sold as is and there is no returns or exchanges. Also the ones he shows on eBay are shown with carbon fiber and the ones being sold are fiber glass. Too shaky for me.....

it doesn't matter, as long as you pay with paypal you have buyer protection. but you have to return the item withn 45 days. which is reasonable. so your saying the pictures shows a cf diffuser, but in the listing he says its fiber glass?

If u guys help with getting sketch 3d and with perfect dimension I can contact back home a company to engineer it and see all about it n cad it as well!! lets consider rentech design if we can get their diffuser what offers from helping the air flow as well that will rock!!!

Obviously there is a lot of interest, its just that no one is making it, aside from the ebay one that doesn't fit all that well. If you make it they will buy. just dont follow the FAILURE that MCD motorsports put on some members here.
