Looks good!, but to me the fins are way to thick. Is the seam in the seem in the middle always going to be there?

I personally can't decide whether I like the 2 or 3 fin better. I think either will look good. Great job on the diffuser.

Now the bad: the seam has to go. Having the seam dead smack in the middle of the piece ruins it. My friend recently bought a Spoon spoiler for his Civic and it had a seam in it. Definitely ruined such a nice piece. If you want it to scream quality definitely make sure it looks clean.

The seem in pic 1, the Carbon piece. It can be done with 1 piece of carbon or 2 pieces meeting in the middle. We all love our CF lips!! LOL

The hoods and trunks are next!!!! I agree that it should be 1 piece, this is not even close to the finnished piece.The CF on that piece is to big. Neal I like the size you use to wrap the lips.
