Interested in final results. The only thing holding me back is the carbon from JDP seems a little off each time I see it on my car or other cars??

For example I've been to a few meets and noticed a few people had the same pieces and some weaves looked better then others, some looked like cheap simulated carbon and others looked like the better stuff (Seibon/VIS) if that makes sense?

My shroud piece almost looks cheap compared to my interior pieces from AJR.

John wanted me to let you know that he uses the 1x1 weave pattern on Honda Fit parts that is normally used on Japan made parts. Seibon/VIS uses 2x2 carbon weave pattern which is common among all overseas manufacturers. He likes the 1x1 weave pattern because is not common.

Basically, it will be the same kind of weave as you've seen on all previous JDP GE8 parts.

Can he place the spoiler on the car and hold it in position or screw it in place and take a few pics of it, to get an idea of what it will look like on the car in different angles. Because the part looks great but would love to see how it sits on the car.

A few angles to consider. Maybe he can provide us with a side shot of the car with the spoiler on. Also, a rear shot of the car at eye level. and a shot from the front of the car at eye level to see the car straight on and see if the wing is noticeable.

Thanks!

He had to borrow a friends car to make parts of it. I don't think he has access to it regularly, hence photos of it w/o the car. Sorry

Ok guys here's what we do next: I need you to pm me your emails so that John can use them to reconfirm your deposit. He has a lot of group buys going on so I'll get it organized for him.

The design of this spoiler is really good. I haven't seen a better looking spoiler for the GE8!

If you haven't yet, please PM me your emails so that I can organize the list for John. He is making the mold now. If we don't get these emails in soon, we will be waiting instead of shipping. Thanks!
