are you working on an 09 application? you'd be the first. this is an item i would buy from gwr because you verify that it's functional.

AERO WORKS!

Finally got NCLIGHT back on track with the FULL FLAT BOTTOM, splitter, top, and rear diffuser. It was a revelation! Car is amazing in the corners. Full report on the event in the NCLIGHT thread HERE

How do you think this would hold up in a roll over compared to the factory fiberglass hardtop? I imagine the CF is a bit stronger.

Would it get a car HPDE approved with just the factory NC roll hoops? I know it's not the safest solution, but it would require the least amount of factory interior modification.

Sorry I didn't see this before, it was a few pages deep. The carbon does not have much strength in the direction except in the direction the fibers run. So, no significant roll strength or protection from the tops (whether factory fiberglass or our carbon).

Did the flat bottom and diffuser ever make it to production?

Nope, it was too involved and too niche.
