I removed the wing and added the TA 2.0 carbon lip spoiler. Love it. Just got it back from the body shop.

That's not my think or something I really want to risk death for. I'm also not sure it would make it. It's 206 stock. I've added a tiny bit of power (removed cats), but I bet the lip spoiler added enough drag and the diffuser and other aero bits increased downforce enough to knock at least 7mph off top speed. IDK, I guess on a cold enough day I could probably make it.

I think the GTS is a timeless shape.

Yup. The *** end sure is pretty.



OP, I do think your car would look good with a contrast rear panel. Mine being a Gunmetal car makes the black GTS insert stick out. I bet yours would look awesome is painted Gunmetal like your stripes.

I've thought about it! I think it looks better on solid cars. Not are much on striped cars. The back has plenty going on between the stripes and spoiler and diffuser, I'll probably let it stay as it is.

Splitter is going on this week.

Cool. That's a badass looking car. I am debating on the CF bits like you and even the hood inserts. Did you see the guy who makes them on the VOA? He uses a wire mesh and has the carbon outside instead of just a CF ring that's wide open.

You need the CF ducts behind the windows. It would look great on your car.

Yup! I have those hood inserts! I also have carbon bits all around. Side skirts, vent trim, shifter plate and what made the most dramatic difference- steering wheel. I wrapped my door sills and it looks pretty good. I may get real carbon.

Get yourself an ACRish Diffuser!

Been debating on it. Just unsure of the clearance issues. I can see me running over an alligator and destroying one. lol

Mine is super low. I'm on tractive coilovers and it's LOW. They rub sometimes, it happens. They're a wear part.

This was in the bay next to my car when I was getting new tires. Each time I've been there an ACR or AcR-E has been in the next bay. lol I think it was getting 9L upgrade. It's tracked quite regularly.

My neighbor has an ACR-E. It's a beautiful car that spends most of it's time on the track. The GenV's really are gorgeous cars.
