I would like to have some side skirts. Any word on those for the Elise? How many orders would it take to make them for the Elise? And pricing?

Thomasio-

could you post a picture of your 8-element diffuser? We've sold two since the tool has been done, we've been so busy that I haven't been keeping up on taking pictures of everything.

The splitter pictured on that car needs some more development before we sell them. There's a few things left to figure out on that project.

Chin spoilers are available

Side skirts will NOT work for the Elise. I'm pretty sure that the diffuser will fit on an Elise, but I'd like to install one myself before I hang my hat on it.

Contact Thomasio from RLS. He owns the mold for that piece.

Thanks Fryman!

Shay2, please don't take that personally, I'm just having fun with the forum, (at your expense, sorry).

Honestly, this forum provides a pretty good test bed. If the forum can't find anything wrong with it, you've got a good chance of producing something worth while.
