Hey Adam - I just love the looks of that aero kit. I originally installed a knock off of the front spoiler and was looking for a rear when I slid on some ice and splintered the front fiberglass one everywhere. After I couldn't find and areo deck lid anywhere so I decided to go GT2. Your car sets nice and the wheels/tires really set it off too!

Thanks, Marty!! At times I almost said forget it and went with a GT2 look, but I'm glad I decided to stay with the aerokit.

Enjoy your wheels and your car in good health.
Thank you! I wasn't sure whether I wanted brushed or just plain silver centers, but Dan suggested the brushed and I'm glad I followed his advice. I think the plain silver would have been a bit plain with a silver car.

Post up some pics of your new wheels - I'd love to see them, along with the new GT2!!

Thanks, Art. I think they stick out a bit far, but they weren't made to fit a Europipe. Stef at EP modified them to fit my exhaust (for free - THANKS Stef!!), so I can't complain. They look great from directly behind the car.

Thanks, Rick! GT2 was my second choice and I nearly went that way. You can get another lip off ebay for $350, but again it's fiberglass. Member "Tom Kerr" has an OEM aerokit decklid for sale, if you're still interested.

Hey Adam, Thanks for the info... already did the GT2 thing. If I had an aero to start with... probably wouldn't have done the GT2 thing. Your car looks SWEET!!

If you need another measurement, just let me know!
Adam, I mean this:



I am looking to set the correct high (front /rear) for the PSS9's with 19' without hitting the bump stop.

I appreciated!

Thanks.

Pierre,

Your picture doesn't work.

Let me know what you're talking about and I'll measure it.

Adam, I took some attachments out I hope you can see the pic now.

Otherwise, is the distance between the floor and he high part of the arch where the wheel and tire goes.

Thanks

Pierre
