THe one at the top seems like it wouldn't hold up very well.

So who ripped who off? AIR or Gruppe951? (for the street spoiler)
The original design is german made Gemballa item. Later another german manufacturer Strosek started to manufacture these spoilers. AIR copied that german design.Swedish Sanden copied original Genballa design and we (Gruppe951) copied that Sanden item... Little confusing. So AIR does not own that design more than we! Actually we do not sell these spoilers. We have just made them for our own use.


does anyone have the link/info for the air or gruppe951 spoilers
Gruppe951 is not a company. it's just bunch of 951 fans, so spoilers seen on those pictures are home made

So, the question here is did they send you what you ordered, or did they send you the incorrect one? If they sent you the incorrect one, could you not call them and have them make it right? If I missed this explanation already, I apologize in advance.

GT Racing splitter (street version):

what made you decide to make those yourself? was it cheaper than buying the already-made ones? and how did you make them? they look pro!

It was much cheaper to make them than buy already made ones. We (4 person that time) bought one splitter, made a mold of it and after that we sold the original piece, so practically we got 4 splitters quite cheap (if you do not count how valuable your time is). The quality of our copies are much better than the original we had

And good planning and thorugh preparation is 50% of the final product. And let's just say that I've made some other things from weaves and resin,for example snowboards,in my youth...

Maybe you could make 4 of them and others could split expenses? I would be interested
