My end plates came in today!



Installation was a breeze and I took her out for some photos afterwards.

I finally have a pic with my summers on... but it was right after a rain storm and the car is DIRTY... the dirt makes the endplates stand out more tho lol. I need to wash her and get some nice pics in a scenic spot!

Potentially, personally know of one guy making it work with his *plastic lip of your choice* style splitter. It requires some custom fabrication but he states it made a noticeable difference in front end stability.

Neat photo mash-up our web-developer did on his own car with our CFD picture.



Are there any other components you'd like to see us produce from dry pre-preg carbon as well? Let us know!

So by the time I can afford the splitter I'll have another couple grand of parts to buy... great... gonna need some kind of chart showing the functionality of the canards... maybe wind tunnel and track testing, and a deposition by at least one senator that they do function... Just to piss off the haters

We know they work, the real question is how much do they actually do? We're quite excited to undertake this project because we honestly want to learn more! There is not A LOT of data on dive planes and we hope to learn a bit by trying a few different shapes, angles, etc.

Not many people know this but one of the primary function of a dive plane is to help seal the side of the car with vortices, not actual front end downforce, though they generally produce downforce as well .

We'll work on having all forms of functionality legality checked off as well .
