Default My next custom project.....

Well as some of you guys know I have had some good luck making some one of kind parts, simply because nobody else makes them....LIke my tailights for one, and my CA intake for 2......So now this winter I will be making a chin spoiler for my car...I have a honda buddy who made his own spoiler for his ride, and I was impressed...And it is not easy to impress me BTW......SO since now I have my own garage the project can begin...I have picked up the supplys and foam for making the cork.....And in addition my buddy has some carbon fiber cloth to cover the fiberglass with, to make the chin spoiler look like its made out of carbon fiber.....So the project will begin this week, and pics to follow with my progress....

So let the pics flow of the chin spoilers for a bit of inspiration here.....

Sounds like a cool project...good luck with it.

After you're done with this one, here's another idea: Side skirts similar to the 968's, but without the raised "shark fin". I think that'll integrate nicely with the sides of our cars...especially yours

If you can make it look like the AIR splitter you will sell them easily.
The more I look at your car the more I'm leaning towards the 968 TurboRS spoiler. Wasn't someone here going to try to make those? Rich Sandor maybe?

Tifo, I like the 924 in that first pic. Too bad the nose doesn't fit better.
Any other pics of that car?
