I'm sure they'd be delighted. They actively seek cream cakes but I've yet to sample their coffee!

Nij has kindly dropped off a spare rear bumper at Argon so they will be designing a rear diffuser. Feel free to contribute any ideas.

I think they are only going to take a mould of the diffuser to make a cap in carbon fibre.

I'm planning to give it a go myself and make a proper diffuser once I get the bumper back.

Am due to get mine early next week..now that they have the mould for both DTM and race style it should be a quicker turnaround...as far as I know someone has already got the DTM style one,must be someone on here..
Really hope we can get them to do the rear diffuser as well..have always disliked that from day one, looks cheap,unlike the rest of the car...

Yep, it's here and it's better in the flesh than the mock-up could ever portray.

Fitting was simple, a further 4 self-tappers for security and it looks OE Audi quality and finish. Delighted with it.

That, and the carbon fibre vented bonnet!

How long you had that bonnet?

looks fantastic and mean Caldy!!

Out of curiosity, following all all the build-up and initial interest, how many splitters were actually ordered?

and also, now Caldy has a pic posted, how many will order?
