IMHO it is about making it your own, not needing a new product entirely. On my last car, I had one off custom made carbon fibre strakes, IMO very cool, but from more than 15 feet away, you could not tell. On this car, I went the other way and simply painted mine body color and flat blacked the inserts between each strake. I wanted them to disappear, and have a little depth, like the OEM ones, mission accomplished.

Have fun with it and do something different, thats what makes these cars great, a majority of the mods we each have are completely one off because hardly anyone makes items for us, and I kind of like that aspect. The only guys really doing new things to these cars are the ones willing to go out on a limb with their own car and wallet....
