polyurethane splitter and side skirts????

Im wanting to do a front splitter and side skirts on my car. so far the only ones i have seen and really like is the Hennessey HPE700 ground effects. However , i do not want to pay the rediculous price for carbon fiber and i want something srtonger than the fiberglass. Is there anyone who knows of any companies that can or maybe are making some ground effects like on the HPE 700 camaro???? i am just wanting front and sides.

Kind of reminds me of the front bumper guard on my 1:10 scale RC Camaro...

ive seen that. i was the one emailing you about makine one for me. i wanted it to have the shape of this front splitter though. i like yours but its too strait and sticks too far out. if you can get me some pictures of what it would look like moved back under the car just a little more, i would probably buy it. but im on the fence with it. if you do get pics please pm me or email me.

I totally forgot. Just had the car in the shop for the spoiler as well...

My waterjet guy said $75 for the design change is fine. He could make the overall width (how far it sticks out) more shallow as well. Again, it has a built in 1.5" of adjustment forward or back but we can take an inch out of the design...

$400+ 75 to ship for a simple flat ABS piece? Dude thats too overpriced for what it is. ABS plastic is not expensive we buy 4X8 sheets all the time for the shop. Yes its waterjet cut bit you can also cut by hand and polish ABS plastic easily for the edges.

I do like the Hennessey kit alot. I also like the Callaway.

I agree I want the Callaway diffuser and wing real BAD but I am not doing the carbon theme on my car. Its just my feeling the carbon theme is best for the Import and Euro scene and not a Muscle car.

Now someone needs to buy them and make duplicates for us old timers.

i thought i wanted to do carbon fiber but then i saw how bad carbon fiber looks on black and i decided its a no go. i saw the callaway kit and the only thing i REALLY like about it is the side skirts. the front doest look good to me. i dont like how it comes up on the sides.

55designs is right. i have found the apr carbon fiber splitter for 300. i really do like your piece but its a little pricey for what it is. that may not be your fault. it may be wherever it is made from. maybe your not getting as good of a deal as you thought. but if i were getting it, i would want it beveled, with the shape from the hennessey splitter and in a inch or so.
