Car looks awesome, one of my favorites on the site. Is that the stock front lip or something else?

The car looks on point as always. Out of curiosity, how does the car perform with that wing in the latter half of the pics? i just cant really see how it works.

It works great in conjunction with the front splitter. Both made by JoeFis Racing. The car has never handled as good it does now with the added aero.

That does look really good. Dsp, just aesthetically speaking, opens up so much more.

With all your equipment, car, etc...what is your total investment? Or, would you rather not know? Lol

looking great Mike, would love to have a spin in that thing to feel how it goes with those wide slicks + aero around that tight course!
