Its a nice changes for us Canadians to have access to quality parts on this side of the border to avoid the customs/import hassles. I look forward to the new offerings.

Went to Turn3 Autosport this morning to begin work on 996 dive planes. Unfortunately Jeff's aftermarket front bumper shape is considerably different from OE. I am now looking for a donor car to use for taking impressions of the bumper shape to design the dive planes. If there is someone in the Vancouver/Lower Mainland area who would like a FREE set of dive planes in trade for allowing me to use their car for the impressions and fitment please call me @ 604-329-9391 or email tei@telus.net
Thank you,
Joe

P.S. Also looking for 997 GT3 to design a new splitter. Same deal applies free splitter

Hey guys - I met with Joe today. He's made good progress on the dive planes that people have been requesting. I'll start a new post, and hopefully Joe can post a photo or two of his prototypes.

I do realize it's winter but does anyone have a good amount of track time on this splitter yet.

I'm a sucker for Joe's dive plains, considering getting the splitter while I'm at it. want to make sure it's lower height doesn't effect air getting to the brake ducts in any manor. I have cup ducts so they get down there pretty low to capture the air just looking to be certain I'm not going to increase brake temps.

It doesn't sit lower than a cup splitter, it just sticks out further.
