Default Some winter mods i did and finally installed!!

I sold my cianci zr1 style splitter to another fellow member and something happened during shipping.So we worked it out and i filed a ups claim when it was returned.I was looking for something to do so i remolded the front splitter in cf using cf and 2 part epoxy resin.While epoxy was curing i decided to niteshade my side markers...Enjoy the pics.I also built a splitter brace as well





Last pic is original shape!!!

Looks good. Any thoughts about doing something different with the wheels?

Thank you everyone.It was time consuming but it makes the car look so much better.As far as the wheels go im undecided on what color,design.Was thinking of tsw nurbergrings as they will clear zo6 brakes as a future mod.Thinking matte gunmetal or black to blend with the carbon fiber..

I vote for anything over black. Black just reminds me of what we used to do to our stock wheels before we could afford anything else. I fully understand that is no longer the case but, I think, it is the basis of the bias some of us have against black wheels.
