Message As a "Sr. Mechanical Engineer" you should appeciate the time and effort (Design and Analysis) required to accomplish the task of creating a working ground effects package for the 300ZX.
I knew up-front that what I was doing with MY car wouldn't be readliy accepted by the "purists" in this community.
I also understood from the start, that some people just wouldn't like the style of what I did also.
Again, it's not everyone's cup of tea.
However, you would be very hard pressed to knock the execution of the design.
