http://www.autodesignhaus.com/tuners/acshnitzer/e31aero.htm I called them about 6 months ago and they said it was still available..Look into it..I'm getting the lower front bumper , matter of fact I'm tracking it now thru FedEx..Picking up my hood Sunday morning from Jim @ e31.. Bought 4 NACA DUCTS so if my hood turns out nice I can make 3 more.(one is spoken for if it turns out good)The guys up in the PS forum did this chop 4 me..Now picture it with the hood and the lower front bumper..I think it's going to look good.....NO......YES....???????...BTW , I think they said the kit was $5k..Don't hold me to that,but I think I'm correct.Plus the person I spoke with needed some help with his people skills..( a little to rude for my liking.. )

I will give you a word of warning... I'm riding on ACS springs, which lowers the ride about an inch or so, and the nose piece hangs down quite a bit. I have about 5 inches clearance, which can be an issue since the front of the car extends so much in front of the wheels.
Despite that, I love the look, and I've got a friend who's been bitten by the look of the ACS 8 as well, so let us know the details if you call them up!

Very Sweet Mark. No problem with water issues? Look forward to seeing the transformation.Well from what I understand from one of Ahmeds posts is that the louvers over the air boxes will be fine..Now for the NACA DUCT , I'm going to screen the opening and paint it black with the hood.After that A friend at work who works in our machine shop will fab something to mount behind the opening to take ALL WATER AWAY AND OUT OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT..Now how is he going to do this?? I don't know..But all I can tell you is that when he does something he's very very critical about appearance and function!!!! 3 years ago I tubbed my 1969 Camaro with his help , it looked factory when done!! Wasn't as fast as yours 8eights.. The only problem I'm facing now is someone to punch the louvers,but I'll find someone..:D

I don't think so because this car seems to wine as he rolled on to the highway ramp like from a supercharger!:D Too bad there was a cop behind him because he probably would have lit up his tires in a heart beat. But reckless driving in VA is now close to $3k dollars, for VA drivers only,:mad so it is a big no no to get a ticket now a days.:nono
