I guess getting the rear lip cut and mounted is taking longer than you expected??

I can't wait to see the pics...

It's going to be a bit. I am going to send it to get it touched up and re-gel coated.

Ummm not sure. I have a normal one that I am going to cut first. More than likely I will use that. I am worried that if I cut the CF one it will delaminate.

I wish I had enough cash to bother Ramy about the diffusers....

This way I wouldn't have to harass 7racer for the finished pics.

Damn dude! LOL Busy with work so haven't been able to get it to the fiberglassers. I am hopefully going to cut the valence and fit it to see what needs to be done from the fiberglass side. If it looks better I was thinking I might have the rear valence molded directly into the diffuser for a cleaner look. The only problem with this is that it would be a huge PITA to service anything under the rear of the car as you almost have to remove the rear bumper plastic to correctly remove the valence.

Well, molding it to the diffuser would definitely give it a completed look. However, serviceability will suffer. God forbid you'll have to access anything underneath the car.
I think if Mazdaspeed wanted the part designed together with the valence, they would have included it as a whole piece...
Only 1 way to find out...

Thanks again for the update... I know everyone gets busy, I'm just really excited to see the finished look.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to finish planning the big bank heist so I can get Ramy his cash!

Lates,

Hey,

Looks pretty sweet, is your car a JDM or ADM?.. I hate how they make you cut the bar to fit it...
