The prototype looks too conservative?

You could always buy those add-ons fins and put them on your amuse kit.

uhm?? So you will be driving around with this??? It will trap air if not fully covered IMO. But then I guess it does not matter if its just for looks

Just stating facts that most with this kit don't track much. I don't think many will want to pay for the full underbody so i most likely it won't get made. Oh and that car isn't a street car by the way. bang2.gif

Looking at this site's diffusers, Difflow Diffusers - Lotus Elise, Exige, Evora, Acura NSX, Nissan GTR, Evo 8 , they are still functional without going full body undertray (testimonials section).
A longer piece would be better though. Although feasibility would probably depend on clearing suspension bits.

Of course longer would be more functional, you were the one saying it needed to be more like the pic you posted which is a FULL underbody diffuser. I'm just saying the cost to make and buy it would most likely be higher than MOST poeple would want to pay. There aren't many with this kit that track their car enough to justify the cost.

That was Robones not me XD

It wouldn't have to be full body. The Exige's diffuser is only a few feet long for instance.

Hey guys! what is the name of these rear spat add ons??? I cannot find it anywhere?

I think you can install them to the stock rear splash guards. If you paint to match it would look sick OEM like... What do you guys think?

Rather not go through hoops... I would be willing to get these off someone selling them through private ads also

Wait are we talking about the sunline racing (shine auto, areo jacket, UAM, etc) rear spats or the flaps that or screwed onto the rear spats?

Looks freak'n awesome! As far as function goes, as stated, I’d be curious of some testing in a wind tunnel or something. I've had a few Diffusor on other cars and though they looked cool, some actually created drag on the car at certain speeds and made the back end unstable though. On some of them it spit all the road grime up on the back of the car so much that it always looked like I never washed the back half of the car. Just some things to think about. Form & Function usually sell better in the long run...just saying from experience. Looks great so far though!!!
