Default Veilside Under Wings

Looking for underwings for front of the rear wheelwells only, not front wells.

Can they be purchased separately? I looked at Veilside (side under wing) and can't figure out what to purchase. Their site is not clear on parts.

FRP/Carbon ?
FRP ?
Urethane ?


Any other ideas. Not looking to spend a fortune.

Yea that's the ones. Only want/need the ones in front of the rear wheels.

What is the part number from Veilside if anyone has? Non carbonfiber. I'll have them painted to match the car.

side diffuser are to allow the air that is naturally wrapping around the edge of the car to accelerate smoothly to the underside of the car...

the air naturally wants to curve around the underside, since typically the underside of the car has a low pressure zone... with the TOmmy K and the Veilside underwings. it 'smooths' the air and allows it to flow faster into this undercurrent... the rear wheels have alot of turbulent air flow when driving. and if you can do anything to smooth out the air before it hits the tires. you've made some effort to add more high-speed stablility..

the underside of the stock muffler acts like a small angled diffuser (with no walls obviously) and by getting air to flow faster under neath it.. you create less lift of the rear.. (think the top of an airplane wing, how it sucks it upward? due to the air flow moving faster over the top of it? now flip it upside down and thats the bottom of the muffler.. sucking the rear of the car down with faster air..)

... hope i didnt confuse anyone.. but typically thats what side wings do... i'll be making alot of aero products in CF soon.. trying to acheive greater than 1.0G on the skid pad with the help of aerodynamics..

the Tommy Ks would work more so better than the Veilsides... but thats just the rear.. you have the rest of the side to worry about messing your undercurrent air flow....
