Reverie diffuser, wing, canards, splitter pics

The car sure could use a polish and wax!

Nest thing to do is send the diffuser off to get it clear coated like the others

Thanks. Yeah, it's either you love them or you hate them. I think they look a little bit better in person than the pictures, but thats just me.

Definately HOT!!

I would blackout your wheels for the more aggressive setup.

Your Canards are too high. They should be about 8 inches lower.

Looks good. Mind showing a large frontal shot? I am interested in the canards and would like that angle....

I kind of like the silver on the wheels for street. For the track I use the TRmotorsports wheels which are black and look sick. As far as the canards thats where they fit and were designed to go as far as I know. Thanks for the compliment!

I have a shot from the track I can put up and if that doesn't work just let me know and I'll go take another shot. Let me find that pic...

I also thought they were supposed to be lower.

The Reverie instructions said to line up the lower part of the canard with the upper part of the front "grill." Any other spot and the canard doesn't fit very well against the clam.

I don't know about that wing thingy.

If you like it though, I guess that's what counts

Not to nit-pick, but it looks like the diffuser is hanging off a bit on the right side? Or am I seeing the pic wrong?

ditch the tires for r888s

Your Elise needs the rubber to match its newfound down force.

Smoky- I think it might just be the way the picture is angled

sleepe- eh these seem to work well for the streets, but maybe when they wear out. For now we have an extra set of wheels with Hoosiers
