I seem to recall it was HT member BradPitt that made those. I talked to him a while back about those. I accidentally erased my old PM's, but I wanna say he quoted something like $1000 to have one made?

$1000?! That's rediculous. I'll just weld my damn cracks. $300-400 would have been reasonable I think.

New splitter set-up:

Brackets: RCrew Racing - trimmed to fit CRX (and Innovative race traction bar) - $80
Splitter: 1/2" plywood sheet - Makes two splitters - $25

The plywood is actually lighter than the flimsy plastic one I bought from TopOne Aero. I knew it would need more bracing, but it needs TOO much at this point. So I've decided to switch to wood until I can afford alumilite.

Splitter blade edges will be smoothed and entire piece will be painted black. Just need to fashion a nice air damn since my aluminum one is beat up.

Where do you get FRP? Come to Nor Cal! Infineon, Laguna Seca, and Thunderhill. So much awesome in one place.

the biggest use of FRP is for truck/box bodies...we have used it many times in the past for outfitting our installation trucks, building all the shelves/racks, etc inside them. i got the old stuff i'm using when i gutted one of the trucks to rebuild the inside.

its white/smooth on both sides, very stiff, as its fiberglass reinforced (its 1/2'', and probably stiffer than 3/4, while being drastically lighter)

and, it doesnt have the "woodgrain", so it doesnt look like plywood. and i had it sitting against a wall at work.

you can probably find it at really good/specialized lumberyards, or truck/trailer upfittings/manufacturers

i'll get some pics when i finish mine, snow has been keeping my spirits nicely crushed.

As you know, I finished building my LS ad swapped the GSR out for it the other day. Redid my wire tuck and relocated the engine bay fuse box.

Anyone want to buy a used kiddracing RMF narrow replica header? $300. I'm open to offers. You pay shipping.
