I think I'm starting to sound like a political mod in this thread - sorry about that guys.

If you're worried about a check sitting in limbo (like I am) take out a money order or something along those lines.
Hmmm, *shrugs*.. i may just wait until he gets more active back on the boards before i send out anything. But i have already talked to Corrie (who's been doing our monthly schedules) & she said it shouldnt be a problem for me taking off for Mod Day Weekend & Dragon Weekend!!!

On a different note - would anyone be interested in a front bumper/lip diffuser? I'm talking to the CEO of NORVA Plastics (Howard) about manufacturing something. Howard just called me to say it would run about $30. He showed me the material he'd use which is some pretty durable stuff and it looks as though it is going to be the exact same thing that Coastal Metals and whomever else sells for over $100.

We drew up a template that is pretty much universal, but he is not opposed to customizing these things even more. He can pretty much do anything with plastic. NORVA Plastics supplies NASA by the way

Hmmm, i'll do a search when i get home to see how a diffuser will loook on the s2000 before i give a yes/no answer. Like i said on the phone though, i'm honestly not to sure how much longer i'll be into working on/modding the car.

I found an old picture:





And it is not called a front diffuser - it was called a "splitter".

I need a protector more than a diffuser/canard.
That's what I'm talking about - after the rashes I've put on my 04 lip I'm very concerned about protecting the ING front bumper in Fiberglass.
