Very interested in a carbon fiber front lip/splitter, skirts, diffuser, and other various bits for my SVR, so long as it's tasteful. From a style and quality perspective, think along the lines of Novitec, Vorsteiner, APR, IND, etc.

I'm in the Bay Area, so if there is any way I can be a resource, please reach out.

There wasn't enough interest so unfortunately I had to tell my resource the same thing. However, I believe SigsJag has a friend working on some pieces currently and I am waiting to see how they come out. So far the only options I have seen are from companies advertising on ebay from overseas. You named a few great companies that I have used in the past but unfortunately I don't have any connections with them.

Okay I made a little bit of progress since I have been seeing some new interest on a few different threads. I reached out to a somewhat local shop that does carbon fiber work (Ernie at HCM Carbon who primarily works on mustangs) but he said if we had a group of 15-20 people he could probably get a Project7 style diffuser made and price would be around $800-$1200 for carbon fiber or $400-$600 for fiberglass/composite material. He won't know for sure until getting the car but I figured I would post this to see if people would be seriously interested. I gave him this link to use as reference and to show you guys what we would be looking at having made:

Default Project7 style diffuser

I'm still interested but that Project7 style diffuser is for the V8 and/or the Quad Pipes and I have a 3.L V6 and prefer to keep the dual pipes. Can you ask Ernie if he could design something like the attached picture for the V6?

It's going to be hard enough as is to get a group buy for the Project7 diffuser. Possibly in the future (if we even get this one made) I can see if we can get a V6 center exhaust diffuser made.

How/what can we commit to so this gets off the ground?

I'm guessing at least 10. I don't think they would be making much of a profit of these diffusers and the only reason they are doing it is because I keep messaging them to make something happen lol. I feel like the fiberglass/composite in gloss black would be more appealing to people and at a lower cost. It would also match the factory gloss black rear valance as well. But I am okay with either option if carbon fiber is more popular.

In other news, I am meeting with a local race shop next week to se how much it would cost to just do a custom one-off piece.
