| Just a quick introduction to myself and my new business.
I've owned my Impreza for 4 years now, since I got it I've been looking to improve every aspect of it. For the last couple of years, I've been on the lookout for Aero parts that perform as well as they look. Sadly, the only bits available are only aesthetic pieces, or stupidly expensive. Coupled to that, is the fact that customer service from large companies, is generally abysmal, I wasn't happy giving them my hard earned! I've just finished a 4 year contract in Afghanistan and thought it was about time I did something I enjoy. So, that leads me to where we are now.
I'm now making carbon fibre aero parts that are good enough for show, but actually perform, for those of us that like to use our cars on track. Off the shelf parts will be functional but 'fairly subtle' allowing the car to be used on the road. Initially I'm making parts for the 03-05 Imprezas but will be expanding the range in the very near future.
The product range will include splitters, with or without air dams, diffusers, side skirt splitters, canards and gurney flaps. Initially I'm making parts for the 03-05 Imprezas but will be expanding the range in the very near future. I've bought a Focus ST to use as a demo for parts and I've got an Evo IIIIV coming in soonish. I can also accommodate custom aero for those of you after something a bit different and will be undertaking carbon skinning for any parts that are just for show
I'll update this post with products as and when they're available, but feel free to contact me on here or by phone. Also feel free to follow on instagram @CarbonAeroRacing and via the Facebook page which will be coming soon
Cheers

| A functional diffuser is definitely on my list for the Blob, so should also fit your car. What sort of thing are you looking for? | |

They will be coming in the future, but need a car to use as a test bed first | |

The splitter is already underway and the diffuser won't be too far behind | |

I don't have a professional background in it, but have made a few parts for myself and mates previously. All parts will be put through their paces on mine, and mates cars before being sold, in the hope that they do something positive | |

| Andy - the diffusers will be pretty much the full width of the rear bumper
Mousey - Thanks, I'll keep that in mind | |
