well you should give in to the commoners that say the evo is rice and dont bother painting it, so you can have to 2-tone "im too poor to paint my bodykit" look :lol:

Actually it is pretty light for how strong it is. Not solid inside. I am looking forward to testing it on the track...

are any of you really short enough to need a built in step stool on your front bumper?

If you drive fast enough, it should generate df equivalent to you standing on it...

It's made out of flex-i-fiber urethaneized fiberglass lighter than urethane, stronger and no painting issues. Mark didn't include this was developed as a part too give the same downforce as My Canards and splitter hope testing proves me right..

Update:

Finished prep/fill of the lip and shot 2 coats of primer yesterday. Sanded it nice and smooth and started with the base coat.

Here are a couple of shots in factory red base coat before I shoot the clear:

Base came out pretty nice with only a little color sanding :)

Sweet still wanna see it on a ride though. How many inches does that come forward.

Looks like a track only item though looks like it might look a lil front heavy(appearance wise not at all actual weight)

Mark, you need to learn to use tarps on the ground. No more epoxy and paint everywhere. Grass like to be green not red.
