I cut up 2 diffusers and changed some of the angle's so they flow a bit more with the curves of the body, and made some alloy angle and covered it in some red reflective tape.
I have the third piece that go's in the middle it's just not mounted yet. still working on the shapes and when done i will cover them in some carbon fiber.

Love the 4 gauge pod combo; do you have a closer shot of those?

Also nice combo with the NSX too!

^ Yours included!!! Really love that first shot you posted; just has that clean aggressive track spec look!!!

Have you thought about getting a vented hood at all?; i think it would really complement the look really well.

It's still under construction at the moment. The engine/chassis is a 39,0xx original miles R1, so wanting to preserve that for now, but I am currently streamlining the aesthetics and adding some "bolt-on" mods at the moment, as well as a select few clean/rare interior modifications I've never seen done before..

Rice, yours looks amazing as well. Mind if I ask you what your wheel/tire specs are? That rear looks just perfect.

Yessir, the cap was relocated under the hatch, but outside of the weatherstripping seal, above the taillight.

Great job. Uber clean install. This pic is just killer. The side lighting on the FD in the top pic really shows the clean timeless design!!

Gorgeous car, L07, I follow you on Instagram as well... dumb question: Do those headlights go down? I can't imagine you did all that work to clean up the lines to such a degree, only to leave the headlights popped 24/7.
