Carbon fiber rear lip idea???

370zsport09 · 11-24-2010, 07:53 AM

What do you Z owners think of this kind of rear lip to enhance a rear carbon or black out rear valance, covers the original color peeking through around the edges or just to even out the natural body lines of the Z.....

Please excuse my primitive photochop....if anyone has better skills, would like to see something on a pic to give depth....

They already have a carbon fiber diffuser.

I think that's a good idea.. so instead of making it 3 piece look, with rear carbon fiber diffuser it'd give uniform line.

give it a shot lol

Are you talking about something like evo r diffuser?

it took me a minute to figure out what he means... but he is talking about connecting the 2 shine auto rear parts together, over the diffuser area.

Problem being that you significantly increase your shipping cost by connecting the 2 ends for very little addition in material. You may be better off seeing if EVo-R can extend their rear diffuser a little higher to match the lines of the Shine rear skirts.
