As for the Ducktail spoiler, I don't know what to expect yet.

I will post any mockups and updates.
For tack use poly would be the preferred material.
FRP would be destroyed in no time.

I'd be 'all in' if they made it in poly.

At this time we are concentrating on a lip design. The plan is to have as much finalized as possible before revealing anything. Basically a "this is what it will look like, and this is what it will cost. Who wants one?" sort of thing. W can then take interest a diffuser/ducktail from there.

and edit - stupid suggestion maybe, but... wide front fenders like they offer for the s2000?

OK...

JMO but I think there'a a much bigger market for the rear deck spoiler & diffuser than the front lip.
A larger number of us already have front splitters.

I'd be intersted in the rear deck spoiler to fit the existing hatch of the coupe. I have gotten a quote from an AC Schnitzer dealer for a primed unit. I would want to paint mine regardless. Any chance of a primed/poly/fiberglass unit? I haven't seen a price quote or design yet for the rear deck spolier.

I think you guys are a bit late for the lip. APR already had a successful GB, and Nikki is releasing her lip soon too, if not already received payment for some.

I'm also in IL so I can drive there to see the parts if possible needed.

A rear diffuser would be nice, but I got a hamann here already, may use it as a template could be something to look at.
(See upper red)

I have a set of molds for the Z4 hatch already finished. Perhaps I should pull a glass part and mock up a duck style rear spoiler ??

SSK....are you already deep into mock up for this ??

If you guys are serious about the hatch, Challenge already has the engineering and tooling as they made a one-off for a customer before. Very pricey though. If you are interested, contact him about this...the reason he didn't release it is because it's a pretty cost prohibitive piece, but he said he can make more.

SSK and I are going after a specific lip design...we both like the Challenge M3 lip a lot and think a similar style would go nicely on the E85/86 M's. I've yet to see something like this...realizing that there are many lips available, I'm not crazy about any of the designs. We are also hoping to end up with a piece with "optional" brake ducts a la the GT4 M3 lip (basically they will cut the lip for the ducts for an additional charge)

In that case, I'll definitely keep an eye out for what you guys come up with. Perhaps I'll upgrade from the APR splitter once everything's finished

Just make sure to try and keep costs down! A lot of recent projects headed by fellow Z enthusiasts are still very costly unfortunately. Really detracts from buyers' market

A fiberglass or CF hatch would definitely be a feasible down the road, if I decide to dedicate my car as a track-only vehicle
At that point, I'd do lexan window along with the hatch, or equivalent.
Any idea how much that would be as far as a combo goes? I've not looked into any of that stuff yet.

Were looking to make a lip that's more than a flat piece of CF, something with some form to go along with function. And that CF Hatch piece is $$$.

Ouch...you're right. $3k for a one-off. That really bites lol.
I wonder about the non-CF. And if we do GB pricing hahah

An cost effective add on spoiler would have far more appeal than a complete hatch replacement.
