Yes, I love it! I agree with the white/black motif...maybe a touch of red subtly placed on a badge would give an additional clue what your duck is all about!

and... brake duct(k)s + clear corners...

brake ducts are from GT-3 Tek and don't have that sag in the top edge that some of us are all too familiar with

splitters are coming off for refitting and paint

Looks great, time to remove the bumerettes as well!

Ha,ha. Yes, this is a customers car and he already has a good list going with us. I think he wants to hold off on the bumperette removal until more funds are available.

Looks good.
How about adding some more CF parts to your website ... "A" pillar gutter filler?

OK, the finished product, except the sticker for the tail... which is due in next week

- GT-3 Tek RS sideskirts
- Getty Design Ducktail
- FDM Short shift Kit
- FDM Golden Rod
- Fister Stage III treatment for the mufflers
- "Little Reds"
- Other minor maintenance items

This was a fun project
Luv the white duck
Please forgive the photography (or lack of!)
I had no idea a white car with black wheels would be hard to photograph

That is cool. Where does one find those exhaust tips?

This car had B&B mufflers, which use their own tips. They will not fit on factory mufflers. Plus, in person they do not look that good. Funky oval shape and they are not cut to the bumper curve and stick out quite a bit. I will say though, that converting the mufflers to Fister Stage IIIs was a major success. They sound awesome now! Also the car looked great after it's makeover. The client was VERY happy.
