Performance AFX bodywork

Has anyone used any of the Performance AFX bodywork? I am seriously considering buying their frontend with splitter and brake ducts as well as the hood they offer it looks like great stuff and would solve serveral issues i'm having.

I've been tempted by the hood, I've considered glassing in some vents myself as well. Any aero feedback?

The VV hood was recently mentioned in a thread over in the racing section. I can't spend that much now but it's on my wish list!

The splitter front end looks interesting. I wonder if it's strong enough to actually generate some meaningful downforce.

thats what I was wondering. If you look on their website they are using the front end with splitter that they sell and they are also running a very serious rear wing on the company race car. btw it's for sale. Hey Chad are you gonna have the engine in the car soon?

Hopefully I will drop it in the car in the next week or so. I'm pretty busy with school and work (have to make money to keep the build going...), but it's about time to put it back in.

On a related note, AN fittings are f-ing expensive.

I think you'll get a much better response in the racing section. Most kits discussed here and in C4 gen aren't designed to be functional. Over there though...
