I know this is a limited market, but I am going to start fabricating custom front splitters and rear diffusers for mainly Turbo Coupes, but I could probably adapt them for Cougars too.
I am working on prototypes right now and will probably be finished in a few weeks.
These will be fully functional for my hillclimb car. The front splitter will give downforce and force air into any front mount.
I am also getting sick of looking at my ghetto ram / cool air valve cover hood scoop and am going to start making kits that exit out of the passenger inner amber light. (Yes this requires removing the light)
Details and pics as I make the parts.
Comments questions?

Comments........Just one. Glad to see you're trying to make something for these cars. All I did were the graphics for the center console control panel (sold 38 sets). We all know how hard it is to find anything at all for our cars.
Questions....not until I can see what you're saying. I need a picture.

I am modeling my front splitter off of this for the Pikes Peak car.
Rear diffuser will be modeled after this
The underbelly plate will not be made by me. I am only going to make the diffuser.
Single Exhaust will exit straight out of the bumper like on the Ferrari

It's hard for me to see that actually applied to a Fox Bird or Cougar.

I've been going over a front splitter in my head for awhile for my Turbo Coupe Clone/Drag build. It just doesn't seem like it would function and look anywhere near decent at the same time. It would have to be a wild creation for funtionality only.

I've got the plastic, but I am still planning out the best measurements for functionality. I will probably take a little while on this project
