New Rear End

I think this is a great exterior upgrade for my car. It is a new rear end for my "SALEEN" Clone. The only down side is that I can't have it mounted to the outside of my car when I am driving but it is movable and actually can be attached to the inside of the car when driving. Tell me what you think of it!

Not confirmed but I believe under "certain" situations that mod is good for a tenth or two in the clock.

The mod is strictly visual and actually hurts my performance. That much junk in the trunk adds weight. Good thing I am running about 475hp!

I'm sure that with this mod you'd not be wanting a 10 second 1/4 mile run!

The mod creates a good amount of down force if you mount it in the back seat but if you leave it back there for too long it makes an annoying noise! I will post a picture of the front end next for you guys to see.

Front End

Here is another picture of my exterior mod that shows the front end. The front view is nice but I still prefer the rear view best! It has been hit from the rear before but in that case I am sure it is not a bad thing
