I was thinking about doing a fiberglass mazdaspeed rear with the right side filled in. I have a Hi-power.. P.S. I'm loving those side skirts real clean look I cant wait to get mine on.

I'm so damn jealous right now... are you working on those front splitters? I may have to hire you someday to work on my car Also, we'll have to schedule a photo shoot sometime this spring, I can make another framed collage of just your car.

Thanks! I will take a look at the CF rear. I know fluid had them too.... I am not sure if it will flow well with the rest of the car though....

I'm still looking around for the front splitters. I may just buy those ones I posted earlier and mod them if needed.

Photo shoot would be sweet...
