Hi guys.

So this is my latest project I have been working on. I brought some mould a month or so ago and I have got them them repaired and improved.

Once I have finished this set I will be selling finished products if anyone is interested.

Here are some shots of them on my car. We are still strengthening them and this is only the first fit of them so they will be much better when they go on sale. They are unfinished and unpainted at the moment.

Let me know what you guys think and if anyone is keen on a set then let me know.

here are some pics.

Cool. Appreciating the front spoiler - the rear isn't really my style. If I was doing it myself I would want a proper Tiger style one.

I think i am in love

these could go on www.thisiswhyiambroke.com

also not sold on the wing currently - image of style/completed?

currently cant afford even a club membership/entry fees so I am in no hurry for a set etc..

edit : after thought : does the front come without the indicator rectangular-holes? cos I have long ago smashed mine and will be using generic trailer indicators for the front etc

Yeah I am really loving the front spoiler. I think that is really cool.

I am a bit the same about the rear spoiler, I know I don't want to go Tiger style on my Avenger and I like the general look of the rear spoiler but I think it is just a bit high on the boot. It is sort of the like the one on my race car. I think it looks better than my race car spoiler. I am hoping when it is painted it will look sweet.

It will be painted up like a torana spoiler. Like this one. Infact I think the spoiler may even be off a torana.



It will look a bit different, I will see if I can photoshop a preview.

Here is a dodgy photoshop of what it will look like. (Yes I know my photoshop skills suck but I couldn't be bothered spending ages on it)

Suppose painted it would be a different matter. I do get the idea. It could just work. Sure you didn't use MS Paint though? :P

On a related note: what do you think A9X style flares (filled with giant rubber) would look like?

Yeah I am hoping that when it is all painted it will look better. The boot is a bit of a gamble style wise but I think it will work.

I couldn't be more pleased with the front end. I love the chin spoiler and the new flush bonnet pins look cool.

I was actually talking about flares while I was down looking at the fiberglass. I think with this kind of kit then flares could work, and that was exactly the style of flares I was thinking of.

P.s. No I didn't use ms paint :)

I like the lines to much to want to start thinking about flares - I'm running 165/185 and happy about it - but if I was going all out then I would go all out! Work your computer magic, sir!
Chill Datto, bro!

I run 185's on my '75 and 205's on my race car. I always wanted to flare my race car out. I went for a more boxey spoiler on my race car to suit the boxey Chrysler Avenger.

Here are some shots of the spoilers on my race car. (sorry about the old crap photos)

As requested, dodgy photoshop with A9X flares.

I actually think they look bloody hot on it. What do you guys think?

Get some more width on those wheels and I think it deserves to be done.

Bonnet ought to have a decent bump in it too - think Mark 1 Tiger.
Chill Datto, bro!

Hmm I shall look in to this. A fully kitted race car look would be pretty awesome.

Why flares?

Because race car

Here is a shot of the Avenger with real life flares and race tyres. What do you guys think?





I think the roof mounted diffuser is a bit of a piss take.

rear flares are yuck. way to big/deep. put ones like the fronts on the rear and it will look choice.
