if its cf then its new ... because before the only version peicha offered was NOT in Carbon Fiber.

Honestly though I don't like the piecha diffusor ... I feel it looks like a F430 wannabe.

I too find that the Piecha diffuser has too much F360/F430 tone to it... I prefer the look of the one being produced by the guys in this thread, but they should get their butts moving a bit as it's been a while now

More pix!!!

You guys have been good, I decided to show you a few teaser pics, we finally have one almost completed in CF, it looks sick!!! The thing is, this thing uses so much CF, at the price i plan to sell it for its almost a loss for us just on the material price alone.

Hey Alex, thanks! Photoshoot wont be long now. The rear spoiler will be done early/mid August also. The front lip design will be done in about 2 more days and i will post pics for everyone. Thing is, once its put in production it will take about a month to see finished parts. So yeah, we will do the shoot with just the rear stuff for now! lol

How about turning it over and taking a pic from the other side. Or holding it up and taking a pic from how it would look like if viewed from the rear?

So, how much were you intending to sell it for in the end?

Yes there will be. Also, for those who buy just say the rear diffuser and the front lip is not out yet, we will honor the package price for you when the front is out whenever you want to buy it.

Sounds good. Also, when the front lip is complete, I'll need to know how many inches it subtracts from ground clearance. My driveway is steep and I barely make it now. Hopefully it'll still clear!
