Thanks Mark! I was waiting for you to reply haha. I know, the rear definitely needs something. I just wish there was a rear diffuser or something to tie the rear into the sides and level it all out. I did dip the rear fascia but I still have to add some gloss to it. Here it is as of this morning (don't mind the loose tips):
Your ... TIpS ... are sagging....
Overall its a smoking good look !

Any other plans for your ride this year? I still have T1 sway bars to throw on, FAST 92/90 and a re-tune.

More polishing as usual...
That's likely it for now.
It really does not need anything more for what I use it for.

Maybe it's just me, but I just don't like side skirts on a car that does not have the flared fenders. It throws off the body lines.
Front spoiler looks good though.

Be sure to post up before and after dyno numbers.
This is what I got from my Fast 92 / LS2 TB.
It was a nice gain across the entire RPM range that I could feel.
My tuner also recommended instead of tuning at AFR 13.0:1, I go to a safer 12.6:1.
I was at 12.9-13.0 AFR on the Pre Dyno.
He said with all the additives in fuel today (Ethanol)... it was safer for me to run 12:6.
I likely left a little HP on the table, but I'm still very happy, and I'm 100% into it being reliable.

Here's my current dyno pre-FAST:
I'm right around 13.0 A/FR too but I'm also on E85 so I have a little more wiggle-room on that than you do. My tuner has the same theory as yours though - reliability/longevity over max power. Looking forward to seeing/feeling the added gains!

I still have a LONG ways to go just to catch up but this is probably the end of the line for the year. Money tree needs more fertilizer
) looks good! Nice job.

Late reply here.
Looks really nice and performance to back it up.
Question -- with the lip and skirts I feel like it is crying for a small real spoiler even more than a diffuser. Just curious -- is that in you future or you just don't like the spoiler look on a Z/FRC?
