Ohh yeah, forgot you use 3inch. I know Ive had trouble with my 2.5 inch and the ST sway bar getting in the way.. must be a breeze to pull off!

Good luck with the testing be sure to let us know and snap some pics.

I've always thought about this. The pan looks trick. Interested to see how it performs on track and if it helps with the o.p. dips.

Maybe it is time to sell the RRG one.. hmm...
Hold onto the RRG. It's a nice piece. My airdam goes straight to the bumper now...no oem lip. The canards are top one...but I took the stickers off for a reason. They mostly make hardparker parts. I had their splitter, but it would bend like a stripper going in for a dollar....so it's just used to trace my wood splitters now.

This page is highly fappable!

I have been holding the RRG splitter for tracing purposes only myself, haha. seems to be just some painted plexi. might hafta jock some of that wood idea eventually for a splitter, if you dont mind. The brackets are 200 big ones though..and wont fit with my full-race traction bar. May have to make my own. Your posts are an encyclopedia of information to me.

Ive had mixed opinions on Topone. Functional parts, but mostly seen on non-function cars, no true tests.. Seems the only site they have is to be facebookfriends so Ill keep my eyes open with them, didnt even realize they had canards for EF's..or are canards all Universal?
Im a long ways away from needing them anyway! I like the look a lot.. let us know when you put it down on some pavement!

Their brackets are EXACT copies of my R-crew brackets. So...I'm guessing here...they copied R-crew. My R-crew brackets were $80. Theirs are $200. Ouch. You'd still need to hack them up like I did.

They also don't make canards for EFs...I just Made mine work, but they aren't very flush with the bumper. I vote for keeping the RRG for the airdam and then just building a better splitter. That's what I have for my street bumper. But, I wanted canards and the Top One pieces are actually really nice, solid plastic. I can't even bend the canards. But that's about the only thing I like from them.

Yeah, Im not spending 200$ on some brackets, thats nuts. Thanks for the heads up. I could deal with 80$ just not sure yet how I would mount around the Traction bar. Still may be easier to make my own.
Wow, didnt realize the canards were plastic.. either way, solid look man. any other aero plans? rear diffuser?! between that beefy front and wicked spoiler.. should be stuck to the ground! I love that you still rock with the B also..

Wow dudes, thank you for the support! I really think I did nail it.. I wish I could get into what it is but simply, Ill be apart of building an Amphibious Vehicle. Opportunity knocks, kick the door open,right!?! 7hour interview/working on machines, going back tomorrow.

Obviously a whole new experience as I dont believe many have "amphibious vehicle" experience, but the chance to learn something new and one of a kind is very intriguing to me. The more I give the more I'll gain.. Im gonna roll and keep my fingers crossed the same way I got here. Thanks again Fellas!
