Thanks btw. I loved the GT3, but i actually just sold it. Need to update the sig. I got an 08 600hp Viper to replace it.
Didn't you own a yellow Viper before the GT3? You go through cars like tissue paper. Not that there's anything wrong with that. In fact, I'm kinda envious.

Neil ... if you wouldn't mind I'd like some pics in a pm ... I don't need to see it in CF. I just need to see if its the shape that I want over the Vaeth one.

Regards,

Jesse
Jesse,

I need to wait till about thursday or Friday. If i don't have carbon pics then. I can show you what we have in fiberglass. Is the picture above the Vaeth? I never seen that. Although i don't quite get it, why does it look like it needs to be bolted together? I suppose you can say ours is a similar shape, only ours is bolted together? LOL Also, ours continues and the fins keep going down to where the spare tire is. Keep in mind, not only is ours a part for looks, we have also sent it out for a week to a wind tunnel testing facility on a mock up car. This diffuser fixes some of the drag the stock car has with air getting trapped on the inside of the rear bumper, also it provides a little downforce.

As promised. I will post some pictures of the work in progress. This is when it was being test fit on Alex's car. It was not yet attached to the car, infact it was only held up by a jack stand. Also, it is in fiberglass, finished part will only be available in carbon fiber. The diffuser is done. It has already even been tested. The mold is now done. But needs to be tweaked a little bit now to make sure it will be a snug fit. The final parts will be for sale in the next few weeks in carbon fiber. Sorry for the bad pics, they were all taken with my cell phone. But i figured its better then nothing.

Thanks to Alex for letting us borrow his car for a few months. Also, as you see, his rear spoiler is off because that to will be available in carbon fiber.

Just further info for others. The CF rear spoiler is an exact replica of the AMG spoiler.
