Hi - I was just looking back at a past thread of pics of everyone's car.

Ozzer - love your exige, - but was wondering - why do you have a single part splitter (as on the early S2)

just wondering, cos i've got an early s2 and was mildly contemplating getting a 3 part splitter.

the cynic in me says that lotus just changed to the 3 part splitter so they could fit an emerican number plate on, so that's been putting me off.

is there any aerodynamic advantage to the 3 part over the single part??

my wife's a mechanical engineer, but she refuses to think about fluid dynamics - she says she hates it and gave that one up when she graduated! - fair doos!

anyone got any opinions

shall i just get mine powder coated black?

its because it fits with his single exit exhaust and rear panel eliminator kit

you can retro fit the 3 piece 111S diffuser to a std S2 - the kit is about £150 from dealers/specialists...or you can fit 3 van jobbies like I have on my car...nothing in it other than the look you prefer

simple as that, hey?? - cos it fits!

There was me hoping that everyone was going to tell me that the one i've got is aerodynamically superior and give me an excuse to save £150!

hmmmm - i reckon i'll just paint it and see how long it lasts before it looks all crappy and chipped!

I couldn't make my mind up if I like the carbon fibre ones and I needed a new diffuser so I thought I would just copy the GT3 style.


I may later get a CF one. Just would need to see it on there before a paid the money for one.

Ozzer - you just need to get that monster rear wing on there now to complete the GT3 look
