Well I still have my front bumper with a 99 spec lip, but I'm sure someone around nearby has a stock front end FD.

awesome thanks. meh the only difference are the side generators. i like the fc ones better though.

is yours cf or frp? how heavy is it? i wanna get the cf cause i know the frp tends to get heavy also cf looks baller lol

a whole fd with a stock front end would make things a whole lot easier since itll be a one piece skid plate and splitter

Yeah they look quite a bit the same.

Mine is FRP, because I figured the CF was quite a bit more expensive and it would just get damaged anyway so I didn't see the point in spending the extra cash. I think it's about 10lbs at the most, but I don't remember for sure. Hey, it helps pull the *** of the car down even more LOL.

I really want a skid plate/splitter and I've been thinking about making one myself. BUT, if you're gonna make one for me... LOL

wow 10lbs thats actually not that bad considering some real diffusers are steel or aluminum. ill settle for the frp then with cf center diviters

ill make my splitter first and see if i or someone else likes the quality. if everyones happy ill make one for your sanai kit.

something along the lines of this

ive worked with fiberglass before build speaker boxes and repairing kits. it shouldnt take me more than a day to make one for my car.

Yeah I think it's only about 10lbs, but I don't remember for sure, so don't hold me to it lol. I don't remember it being too heavy though.

Yeah I'd love to have a piece like that. It doesn't have to have the tips on the sides that come up, but that would be cool too, no biggie either way. I wouldn't mind having some pieces like the FEED ones for my sideskirts either lol. I mean, some to bolt onto the bottom of my current sideskirts. Ideally, I'd love to have a whole underpiece that covers the whole bottom, but I don't know that I'm ready to take on a task like that lol.
