Just found out this weekend that the front splitter won't stand up to a 100mph hit with a large piece of retread on the interstate. I'll be ordering my second one Monday... Yippee!

pigeon549 is infamous around these parts
Those are beautiful! I'm not sure if I would buy the wing, but certainly the diffuser and front lip. I love the look of rear diffusers and it's too bad that Porsche can't really put one because, well, there's an engine where it would go; this solves that though! I was skeptical as to whether it would provide actual downforce and it's great that it does.

Can I get some pricing? Ballpark? Probably too rich for my blood, but ya never know.
Anyone making 'replicas' of the diffuser?

Well, searching yielded my answer:

Resurrecting an old thread because I've done some R&D regarding another thread. It appears Champion went here for their aero testing:
