Hey Everyone

I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find custom made shark fins out of fiberglass or plastic. I don't want to put a front body kit on but I do want to add a little something to the side of the front bumper. It's sort of similar to the splitters but just not metal and more custom looking. Also if anyone knows where I could get material to make my own sharkfin that would be appreciated.

It sort of looks like how the GTR front lip curves up a little like a shark fin. I just want to add something to my front bumper to be unique.

Thanks

*DOUBLE POSTY EDIT*

I just found a link to an example of what I want. Shark racing doesn't sell this anymore though...

I am not really into the whole canard looking carbon fiber look. I am looking for a shark fin looking splitter that would just attach to the bottom side of the front bumber. I am going to be painting my new spoiler soon so painting this pieces wouldn't be a problem.

Let me know if anyone knows who has worked with this idea before or how I can make it possible.

Thanks

Contact Redzman or David from Kspec, I am sure they can get them.

No REDZ

I DO NOT want the canards. I want the custom shark fin look that attaches to the bottom of the BUMPER. I don't want those cheap pieces that just stick out the side.

What I am looking for can be found in the first link I posted:

http://www.sharkracing.com/ex/hyundai/side...esplitters.html

The first picture is exactly what I am looking for
