Default CF Trunk and Splitter

I have someone who I'm likely to pay to make me a CF trunk and full splitter that is removable for loading/unloading on the trailer.

I don't have cost on it, but it will be very reasonable. He's local to me and would prototype it on my race car this winter.

The splitter would be strong and modular so you don't have to replace all of it if you have a bad off. The trunk lid would be as light as possible without costing a fortune like the JDM shit. I doubt the trunk lid will work with the stock hardware so you'ld need to be ok w/ pinning it.

LMK if any of you track junkies would be interested in either.

I might be interested.

Would like to get a spare trunk lid so I can wear a wing on track and no wing on street. So somehow it would need to be easily swappable with stock. What would pinning it involve?

Also interested in removable splitter if it will work with AP2 bumper.

I'd be interested in both. I've been thinking of making a roll-your-own wing ala Jack and maybe an aluminum splitter to balance it. I'd consider paying some premium for weight and strength, but not just because it's made of CF.

Keep in mind that at the spot where your going to have the wing mounted it is going to need to be reinforced. Is everyone willing to use the same wing mounting location?

What sort of weight savings to you expect with the trunk?

I'm interested in the splitter depending on cost.

Why not? The range of optimal locations is very small.
