Tips for front air dams & chin air splitters:

Back into parking slots or up to parking curbs.
Take grade transitions at an angle.
Punch & release the brakes at speed bumps so the front rebounds up to clear the hump.
Drive around road kill. (dodge the cat if you can safely)
I center punched a dog last week & seriously flat spotted the front tires.
Trying to straddle even a soda can at speed can sometimes be a problem.

actually. there is an s4 lip for pretty cheap that is readily available at most scrap yards. I'll get pictures of it up soon. Very little modding needed, and it looks damn good IMO. Plus you'll never guess what its off of.

actually ill start a new thread, srry for the jack

700 for a hood is a bit steep IMO............what are the benefits of this CF hood over an aluminum hood?

There were some delays in making the mold perfect, so we should have pics of them this week. And yes we are planning to make more CF parts for the whole car

Just wait until you see it We will have the first CF lip and the first FG lip this Thursday or Friday. We will be debuting the lips at Sevenstock, so if you go to the event, then you get to see them before the rest of the world

FC3S.org, I got love for all of your team. You guys do some amazing work, and give some incredible writeups.

I may not be getting either of these, at least right now. But I hope you stick around till I get out of school.

And to all you lucky bastards at sevenstock, don't forget to take pictures. lots and lots of lovely luscious pictures.

I already painted, so I'll go with the CF and leave it raw. Is the finish gonna be good enough to just leave it showing?
