    I took a few snap shots after a day in the hills . Several different angles to give you a better idea as to how they look. I like the fact that they do not really jump out at you like they do on some cars . I am sure it has something to do with the other items and color scheme of my car but the end result is good. They are also placed high enough on the fender that they to get a clean shot of air and more importantly do not lessen the effect of the lower splitter which does the majority of work anyway. I've seen these used on other cars where they are closer to the splitter and they are lessening the effect of both items .

    Dang I never got a pic yesterday.. But your right, I was concerned about them looking too boy racer and standing out so much but my wife has walked by my car many times now and went with me in it to minipalooza yesterday and she as yet even noticed they are on there, hasn't noticed the spoiler extension either for the matter.. Don't want to tell her just as a test to see how long its takes her to notice them......she also.doesn't know I spent the money yet either..:) ;)

    So you're saying that "Contact us" e-mail I just sent them, asking Wayne to send me an e-mail, isn't going to work?

    Oh well, guess I'll PM Mark.

    Don't sweat the contact stuff. You have to call Wayne. Mark will hook you up. These dudes are not your traditional run of the mill company. They've become one of my short list of favorites; they have the luxury of doing this basically for fun. Call Mark or Wayne, and you'll see for yourself. This is more of a labor of love than a career for these guys, and they fill a niche. My impression is the business aspect is a bothersome aspect of the main goal, which is developing and delivering parts for folks to get on their cars.

    I can't wait to start getting their stuff myself, but I've had other issues with my car that needed to be addressed first.

    Mark IS the General Manager, and takes the emails, calls and PMs. If you have a question, ask him. If it's something he cannot answer, perhaps he will give you Wayne's phone number.

    Will do. I mentioned Wayne specifically, b/c I met him @ MTTS and we spoke for almost an hour...

    An apology here--it is taking longer than expected to get our rear wing into production. Our R&D is showing some changes that need to be addressed. As soon as we get these points worked out I'll let you all know.
    Here are a couple of prototypes to drool over in the mean time :cool: :

    It's been raining on and off here all week and with the rear spoiler extension, can't believe how clean my rear boot still is!!

    Along with downforce and stability this is an extra benefit :Thumbsup:

    Yep downforce is the first and only reason I bought it...but having the side benefits of a cleaner boot and looking cool too, just adds a little more value!!!
