Hey Rash, DO NOTremove the rear bumper. Removing the rear bumper will be the biggest headache ever. We also had trouble removing the stock piece. We ended up hacking and cutting.

I was almoust going to remove the rear bumper but got "stuck" on removing the tail lights....

Just bend the bumper a little, and use a small screwdriver, if you have one. That's what i did.

If you guys haven't noticed, there are posts every now and then asking for when the CF one is going to be done. We obviously cannot please everyone at the same time. If we can do the CF one, I would like to make 5-10 before jumping back on the FRP. Jumping back and forth between CF and FRP is not a wise thing to do.
im not trying to rush you guys or anything but when do you think the first cf prototype is gonna be finished?

Vacuum infused Twill Weave Carbon street diffuser. Here are the pics.













The first one was extremely difficult to do. We would like to try a few more to measure the difficulty again.

With infusion, the fabric tends to be pressed towards the surface and you can sort of feel the weaves. This is normal. Parts are being bagged in almost full atmospheric pressure.

Well. We're gonna keep at it and see how it goes. It should be available soon. But how many we'll end up offering, i do not know. They consume quite a bit of time.

Looks good Ken. I wonder how well it works opposed to the San Ai or RE versions.

You are right my good sir. Now I have seen the light. Those look beautiful.

That CF diffuser would make a perfect match with my CF hood. Now I just need to see if I can come up with the extra cash necessary for the CF one.

I guess for the ground to look at. Nice work but I can barely see what these look like in picutres unless the car is on a lift, not so sure you are going to see that much of the carbon and it will be impossible to fix when (not if) you end up scraping it on the ground.

None-the-less, it does look very nice and I'm sure it took forever to make, probably too much time for you to really make alot of production ones. You should just get back to making the FRP version... ;-)

beautiful but hard to appreciate once installed unless you go to shows and put mirrors to see under the car.

When do you think the frp production will resume? I'm moving to PR within this month!

The CF one looks good but I'm still not interested.

Rx7junkman's pics are making me jealous since I have the same color car.
