I saw a listing on eBay that caught my eye a few months ago. I've been looking to stick something (M3 lip most likely) on the decklid, because the back side of the car is so- plain. It's for a spoiler for my car, a Del Sol. they wanted $200 for it, which is [freak]ing outrageous.

Here's the listing:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/93-97...mZ350073307390

And here's the spoiler:



So I made my first template for my idea today.

I want something that is both functional, and appealing to the eye. Yeah yeah FWD needing downforce yah yah... I will be tracking this car at VIR this year. I plan on riveting it to the trunk itself, and using turnbuckles to hold it steady, and adjust it.

Here's 2 shitty cell phone pictures of my first idea. It's only cardboard, and I'm not even going to say what my 'turnbuckles' actually are.





Input, CONSTRUCTIVE criticizm- I'm all ears.

True- $200 isn't bad.


That doesn't include shipping, molding it in, painting... etc.

My idea is simple, effective, and in my head it looks damn good. That cardboard mock up is garbage.

WTF, I have PM'd every sponsor of this site who sells CF. NONE of them have gotten back to me with a quote for a hood. Bastards, all of them.
