Like I said before, this is only a drawing... I plan to be able to incorporate all the safety stuff, as well as being able to add goodies (i.e., a cold air box, my FMIC, etc.)

make wing adjustable if you can but Id rather have a simple system instead of electronics. Im not that lazy.
If you dont make this wing Ill probally get an aluminum on and make adjustable brackets. Its a real race car so it shouldnt look ricey.

Hey i love the designs...I would definetely buy one if you actually made more than one of them...ESPECIALLY that rear spoiler...My TII sadly has no spoiler....also, make it manually adjustable, as the elec. motors would just add weight (I am a big proponent of the less weight school=more fun of thought). On that note, awesome work and keep it up!

I did an adjustment to the front end, to make it only an inch or so longer than our stock front end, while keeping the large openings... I tried to post them from my home computer, to no avail... I will see if I can get them up again tonight.

I am debating on the whole "adjustable wing" theory... It might just make it too difficult to do... I made an adustment to the wing as well, but once again, the damn drawing won't come up...

I am having an impossible time drawing the side skirts... They might just have to be done on the car... I think you guys will like them when I get them done.

Some ********** backed into the front of my car with a tow hitch yesterday. The nose is now a priority.
