Default LOL - now the Telson add-on makes even less sense then before....

and quite frankly - the OSIR carbon stuff isn't the greatest in terms of fit and finish. I like my matte Telson and rear valance - but the weave isn't anywhere near OEM quality on either and I had to send a couple back to get ones that fit correctly.

you'd think he'd step away from all that resin fumes and see it.

Default depending upon how its cured...there's probably shrinkage and warping in the manufacturing

process. seeing that he's cranking out the goods now for a variety of models.

Default That's part of it - but in all honesty the CF layup is not very uniform either

not that bad - but then again miles from OEM. The thing is - he's about the only game in town and they were very easy to work with - sending replacement stuff out etc.

Default

it ruined the body lines - at least this one lets the now-runied body lines flow independently...

Default no - in this incarnation the roadster is actually nicer - they have totally lost the definition >

between the body and the hatch that made the MK1 so attractive.

I would trade the wing in and keep the mirrors. Other then that it's growing on me (SLOWLY).

Default It just feels much better thought out than the TT-RS's. It would've been cool to have,

as seen in rear elevation, a stepped lip like the 550 Maranello, but extendable/retractable. At least it would've felt more bespoke for the RS. I think the overall aesthetics are lacking/disappointing.
