Genome Tuning Aero Kit what do yall think??

Hi everyone we have been working for the last couple months on our very own Aero kit for the FRS and soon the BRZ. We wanted to make something that was functional and looked nice. We have finally finished our design and are ready for production.

We just wanted to get you guys feedback (THANK YOU!):

Would you buy this kit over the current available lip kits?
In carbon fiber or color paint matched?
What would you pay for it?

If I had an FRS yes...would be interested in the BRZ concept.

It would look good in a polyurethane finish, and would keep the cost down.

Side skirts look a little off to me, maybe the should be higher

Willing to pay 700 for complete kit, if I had an FRS

I like the look. I think with alot of the kits if you can keep it under $1000 you're doing alright.

The rear is what looks kind of off to me. There is alot of aggressive lines and then just bare open spots where some rear spats could possible go?

Poly is the way to keep the cost down for sure, if people want to factory match let them. Carbon fiber is its own beast. I would do those made to order and just call it good.

How far are the sideskirts projected to stick out?

theres a lot going on here on the lip and diffuser. IMO it breaks flow and adds elements that don't make a whole lot of sense.
The sidesteps are actually pretty acceptable to my eyes.

For me, your lip kit and diffuser wouldn't be among my top 5 designs id consider purchasing despite how good quality your product is.

But im glad your trying to offer something for the twins in terms of aero, outside of japan there are very few aero offerings.

IMO looks awesome, would definitely purchase in black poly.
Only concern is the ground clearance, as it would scrape on bumps.

Looks to me like once you gave the car a much-needed drop to get that fender gap taken care of, that the body kit would be literally sitting on the ground.

Rear is a no for me. The sides need to be higher. And front looks like it will rub the ground while driving the extra lip in front of the mouth seems to be dropping off maybe delete that altogether

I really like the front lip, but I'm not too crazy about the rear lip or the skirts. Regardless, this is one of the better aero kits I've seen, and I'd easily be willing to pay $1100.00 for.

i really like the side skirts but so many cost too much..but that said i would worry for people who have their cars lowered.. this seems like it would almost be touching the ground if people modified their car heights..
