Well me and a friend from class are starting our final project. We are going to make a rear spoiler and air splitters for my car. I'll have to take pictures of the plans and us working on it. And ill keep everyone updated on how it goes. All out of aluminum.

Well we ditched the spoiler idea, now were just gonna go with the air splitters. Should look something like this when its finished

i think they go on the sides of the front bumper and i think there supposed 2 create some downforce to help keep the front on the ground more or something like that
its just like a mini wing for each side of ur bumper lol

the ones you buy refer to them as "air diffuser". Im not sure about the arospeed and other cheaper brands, but i know that the super bad ass supras and rx7s and stuff in magazines always have them :confused:

I think your right. But note anything that is on the car (anything aerodynamicly fit) is either gonna have a positive, neutral, or negative effect on the car only when it is fitted right. For my car im not planning on this to do much for performance but maybe look good.
