The car front lip will be leveled with the car not scooping down like in the rendering. Here is a better pic that may help show the front a bit better. As for the rear diffuser it will be adjusted based on how low and functional it is during the prototyping stage. The car will go thru wind tunnel testing to see how functional it will be. This is just a rendering so keep the feedback coming. Constructive criticism is appreciated

IF the kit is proven to add downforce without destroying fuel economy, comes in real carbon fiber, has a BRZ version, and is toned down to look less 'hyper'/transformer, I'd be interested. I'd be very interested if it keeps the car as stable as my 05 STI above 120mph on a windy day.

I love the front lip and sides the rear has way to much going on for me. As far as finish I'd like to have it paint matched and in Poly for us slammed guys that will run into a speed bump we cant avoid poly holds up alot better.

It's too much, and looks so low that every car it gets put on (which will undoubtedly already be lowered) is going to be scraping.

Maybe a joint venture between Hancha and Genome? Sounds good to me.
