It will be attached with 3M, possibly 1 or 2 screws for extra security but I don't believe it would be necessary.


In case people are still unclear, it will look like the popular rear valence overlay from Bat, except in 2x2 weave carbon fiber, and auto motive clear coat.

Price will be the same, probably less, than however much other CF rear valence/diffuser are going for for our G.

I'd be in for one if the design won't the issues you listed.

Ideas for other designs were made but the conclusion was that it either looked
1. Bulky - not clean
2. Didn't flow with the lines of the car - adding a piece there for the sake or adding a piece there.
3. Hides the exhaust.

So the decision was made to just go with a simpler and cleaner CF rear valence so it flows with the rest of the car.

Sorry for the confusion but for anything to happen, I'd like to hear what people think and gauge how much interest there is!

PS. The new piece is unrelated to the CF rear valence. If all goes according to planned, I should have them in my hands in a couple of hours.

The rear valence would have to be for the coupe. But the new piece (pictures to come tonight) will fit both sedans and coupes.

Interested in seeing the pics! And what's the price on your current CF diffuser that you're mentioning?

Picture of the rear valence? It won't be for a while since I'd like to gauge some interest from this thread before starting with a prototype. But it would look like bat's overlay except in CF.

If you're referring to what WhosUrBud is talking about, picture of that is already up on the blog. After I work out the details, I'll make it official.
