Default Shine Auto Project: Any Interest in CSL Amuse Aero Parts ?

Hey Guys,

I wanted to show you guys a few interesting Amuse parts that I saw in a new Japanese Magazine. '

The new Amuse parts are:

1. Front lip that bolts onto the aftermarket Amuse bumper (which we have replicated and still offer).

2. An air intake duct system AND brake ducting system that is integrated to the aftermarket Amuse bumper.

These are highly functional aero parts. We would like to know if those that purchased our front bumper would be interested in these extra accessories. This is a very unique setup unlike any other bumper I've seen.










As you can see, the air ducting system goes DIRECTLY to the air intake box. And look how big the opening is. WOW.

Also, notice there is ducting to the brakes as well. This was a well thought out design.

Let us know what you guys think.

We'll see how the interest for the items go first. I'm sure we can make a Cf lip, but it wont be urethane.

The lip is a definite must have if you have the amuse bumper. It just doesn't look right without it. And if you can replicate the kits and ducts to their exact specifications, then why not? Good job at shine, all the pieces i've seen from you guys are top notch.

That Duct is hott. If i'm not mistaken, the upper duct has an oil cooler on the passenger side (Driver's side, RHD). Unless those AN- fittings are for "show, which i highly doubt, could it be anything else?
