I have my Misha Design ducktail installed, the fit is perfect right out of the box. That said, I have noticed that at 75mph (legal in Texas) the ducktail has more downforce than the OEM pop-up spoiler so I now am looking for a small front splitter/spoiler. I would prefer flexible black plastic as it will take dings. Anyone have suggestions?

The brands and styles are endless.
Google it and you'll be amazed.
At this time I've not added it yet as I scrape too often on the driveway now.
Having said that though, I would opt for a urethane one over fibre glass or carbon fibre as it would flex rather than break when bottoming.

I've seen Will's car in person, many times...it really is gorgeous! Although not a fan of spoilers, I do like duck tails . Just something retro and right about them.

How's the performance at speed? (Above 125mph) Many years ago I discovered how significant an aero aid can be when the system is really challenged above 125 mph.

Looks great. What kind of exhaust did you install?

Looks great. Did Pfaff put incorporate anything into the trunk lid to stop the rain from going directing into your air intake?

Yah, id be concerned with the water ingress as it seems to have an unobstructed passage to your intake. But your car looks great with it bro, hope you do not mind but can you share how much your duck cost? Looking at your ride is one good ad for misha.
