Check out the first few picks of the blue Super Snake.

I think this car needs more side skirt options. Something that brings the body closer to the ground but not all cluttered up with strange body lines that make no sense.
Like the Foose ones: (these are from the prototype Stallion and are actually lower than the production version)

You know, I actually considered that. Only thing is that since it's such a small part with so many curves it would be a pain in the butt to do. I could only imagine wrapping the factory piece in cf.
I am planning on looking into that. I know some people don't like the look of the metal components that attach it so I was thinking a combination of double sided tape as well as 4 bolts would be a nice alternative.
That should be an easy one to produce, I would alter the design of it a little to set it apart from the competition though.
That's what I thought you were referring to. Are you sure it comes in 4 pieces? That's the part that threw me off.

mirror covers?
door handles (interior)?
intake elbows?
intake manifold covers?
intake shields?
caps (like the chrome ones but CF)?
wheels?
tires?
brakes?
wings?
roofs?
trunk?
.... its all possible.. i mean the brakes would be a major break through and take some time to design.. but get on it!
ps.. the tires might take some real engineering as well.. =/
