That's what I said.

Not bad. But I agree with nigxdoof, it does seem to stop a bit short on the sides and would look a lot better if it followed all the way through to the edge. That's just my opinion though.

Well if I have time I'll fool around and work up a "full" version. It didn;t look that good to me when I did it in cardboard but maybe it will with the ridge and finished/painted. Stay tuned.

Andy Truong from TDA Motorsports sourced it for me. He's a great guy and was super to deal with since I was in a hurry because of a fender bender so he shipped it directly to my body guy on teh east coast and even followed up with phone calls to make sure it got there. It was originally a beautiful carbon fiber finish with clear coat but I couldn't live with that so prepped it and color matched to Mystic Blue. Looks awesome I think and I get a lot of compliments. Lighter than stock but who cares...

Find him here (TRADER-NAS I think is his userid) or on eBay. Cheers.

I have used Andy before for my CF eyebrows.

He is a great guy to deal with.

Sorry, thumbs down. It doesn't compliment the car whatsoever and the M badge is a huge no no. I think you should just get a $99 replica splitter and put it on. It would look much better than hand-made hockey sticks glued to the bottom of your car.
