entire kit will be "dry" carbon at first - for our race and prototype veicles. might consider frp for consumer kits due to cost savings....

It's not made yet . It's a long way from design to prototyping to production. Hell, with the cost of a "professional install, paint, bigger wheels and tires, new exhaust and bla bla bla it's not for the weak of wallet . But..... I would be willing to be first.

And I want the molded in fenders .

sorry, i meant to ask what will it be made out of. I wouldn't mind having one on a race car (a bit low for the street I think). I would hate to think of the cost but when you're the manager of the race team you're the one shopping , not necessarily the one paying for it all

Nice looking concept. You are going to need the 315 hp to turn the tires you will need to fit those flares. Kind of has a " DTM " feel to it . I like it .

Since Tuls left...there's only me and Kal to run these streets...and I can't keep up so I just stole Tuls' identity... On a side note...I would rock that body kit. I could be the guinea pig (like always, right Kal? ). It looks like a better rendering of that one kit a few years back...something saurus...cant remember.... Oh and btw...that chick must have her own orbit and gravitational pull.....LMAO
