Congrats on the win Doug.

Thank you very much. It looks so much better with the front splitter and rear spoilers installed.
I will say this as a testament to your products: The quality of the fiberglass, and craftmanship, is top notch. Most pieces that you run smack flat on into a parking curb would shatter and break into many small pieces. It did crack(as you would expect) but it never broke any pieces off. Even the mounting tab didn't break off, just cracked. Quality stuff.
