Any one ever try front air splitter or rear air defuser i liked this Diy i found ignore the project vensa btw lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqH4NYl6468

 

It'll look weird on the CL, but if you like it, go for it.

 

iam doing front lip and this over winter also repainting car factory blue and 4 coats of clear

 

havent seen one for a cl. would need to be custom made

 

A universal splitter on the cl will look like garbage. a custom one will be too pricey to make and still wont go well with the CL. The pointy beak of the cl with the sides rounded out is an odd shape for a splitter.

 

I think if you were able to contour the shape correctly it might actually look ok with a lip

 

I bought a universal carbon fiber splitter and I was never able to get it mounted because of the shape of the CL's underside.

It isn't flat so it's an awkward look...

Plus there's that plastic fender lining with those parts that "carrot" out by the wheel wells.

Need to modify something (Like a lip) to create a flat mounting location.

Big waste of money and now it's been sitting under my bed for a long time.

Just sharing my experience.

 

^pics?

 

Bought it from another member on Azine...who had a modified Versus lip if I recall.

If I find the thread I'll point it in your direction.

 

awesome. thx

 

im actually going to make a diffuser for me car . Next year.

 

Couldn't find the pics! Grr....sorry man.

Think they were on my old computer's hard drive before it crashed.

 

 

yes iam making a lip with it for the same reason heres an example of what iu want from a miata forum i found btw mines wont be wood lol







ruff idea of what i want making lip first then iam making holes in splitter for oil filter cuz i know it will be a pain to take off every time i have to change oil

 

ALSO FOUND THIS ON HONDA TECH http://www.honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2785485

 

any ones got any good ideas for front lip(air dam shape for our cars

 

Is it possible to hang a set up like that from a tl lip ?

 

tl lip isnt straight on the bottom. Honestly if you guys want to try and be creative, unique I am all for it, but i just see this as a waste of time and money and the chances of it looking good are slim.

If I was going to do body modification to the car personally the only thing i would consider is a fully molded ron jon or 01 TL kit, which both look amazing molded to me(i would go the rj route over tl myself tho). Only other thing Id ever think about is widebody.

 

have faith today at home depot oh n also remmeber iam working part time at body shop

2 in 4ftx8ft insulating foam sheet i will use to carve out mold

 

I must say. That civic looks a lot nicer with the front air splitter...

 

Good luck on your project.

 

I'm interested to see what it would look like

 

On page 2 the mold of the front bumper looks like its about to take a bite out of something lol

 

yeh i can tell that guy never worked with fiberglass before or had any clue on where to start over he just wouldnt let that front lip die lol well iam making a rough mold but iam thinking what shape should i make the fron flat
i like that but i know how pointy our front are but i want to give it some kind of linesjoh has the right idea too bad i dont have 500 for a front lip lol

iam thinking more like

 

That subie lip with a slight point to match the bumper would look sick

 

I was almost thinking that subie lip looked like some stuff people were trying to use from like home depo or something.

Are you just going to use a lip to fill the gap inbetween the splitter and the car ?

 

Working on a front lip for the mz3. So far removed the front end to trace lip contour, traced a design on "pink foam" insulation from HD, carved out a design, and now applying fiberglass. So far its been about 3 weeks work. It took a while due to working on this in my spare time. So far over all 15 hours spent. I will post progress as steps are completed







another idea for the wind splitter i can do the same for the lip also

 

That's just for looks making it like that, right ?
What are you using to carve ?
Do fillers stick to it ?

I seen some car show where they used those sheets and attach them to the side of a car then shaped a wide body mold then fiber glassed over them to make fiber glass wide body pannels.

 

I like the lip on the mazda 3, very clean

 

thats more like a splitter style lip iam going for more of a 2 inch air dam type lip
