APR & Carbign Craft Parts Inquiry

I've been dying for a carbon fiber front diffuser and a rear diffuser... aswell as a carbon fiber heatshields for the exhaust (heat shield purely looks )

Well I e-mailed APR to see what it would take for them to develop products for us TL'ers... I mean I really like the look of their front diffusers and they benefit to reduce lift... and the rear diffusers apr makes create that clean look... and all the stuff is lightweight...

Other thing I looked at was the possibility of an EDFC compatible Strut Bar... ("Flex Control" strut bar)... really simple to have them create one for the TL

Carbon Fiber Radiator Cover <- MUST HAVE (direct airflow into the radiator)

SO Cali TL'ers... CAN YOU PLEASE see if you can get your butts over to the APR facility in Walnut...


Will post their reply soon as I get it

iite, do you have the email addy to the person you received the email from?
also, his name and other info.
i'll contact him cuz 100 people seems waaaaaaay too much.

i'll ask my homie if we can some more discount and less people to have them make it for us.
100 people.. WTF?!

nah man it would be for looks, regardless Tony Nguyen's reply spoke about the rear diffuser... he said no where near as much interest as the strut bar and that if I wanted a front diffuser to do the custom application they have on their website... so as of now it is strut bar quest
