From photos it looks like they sit way out.

I also have a rear diffuser on the way too.

Unfortunately winter is still here and have not been able to get out to get some decent photos.
Looks great with the aero side skirts!

I held off at first because I jumped on the Turner CSL air box preorder but then got reeled in by the last set! And of course I had to get them xpel wrapped and ceramic coated.
Makes sense, I doubt they made a large number of them back during the productions years. Maybe a used set if a part-out pops up on LKQ?

I really hope Turner is able to follow through with shipping their airboxes in a reasonable time, with everything that is going on. I nearly pulled the trigger on one, but decided to go with Evolve since shipment was guaranteed. Looks like they'll be a nice product!
Right now my order is end of April ETA but I highly doubt it with the current situation.

Car looks awesome. Black roadster looks great and I'm biased.

some do prefer to mount the side blades further out and some likes it more inset.

The kink is designed specifically so you won't step on it when you get out.

We still wish to come out with the front lip+splitter combo as well as the diffuser this season.

Both designs are done but just don't have the production capacity to build them.

Let's hope this pandemic behind us sooner than later.

Stay safe out there..

I think ZCP more modern and CSL is like classic, personal preference I guess

I’m reviving this thread as after a few years now I’ll be getting to mounting these up. Got a set just before adding the coupe to the collection and have been back and forth which to put them on the roadster or the coupe. After looking at pics for the past couple years and now that the coupe will be paid off I kept the promise to the Mrs no modifications to the coupe until it’s paid off. Well the coupes getting the side blades lol. A question I have is mounting. I’ve seen the basic instructions of use self tapping screws but saw a few comments that those pulled out over time. So what’s everyone’s method? Do you have pics on the underside of the install and has it stood the test of time/miles how your initial install went?
