Awesome skirts, BTW.
So manly, we should call them "kilts".

If VW actually made that car it would be a toss up for me between it and an Aptera. That is, if I had the cash kicking around with nothing else to spend it on. The only downside is it's a VW. I'm fan of pre '71 VW but the new stuff is too unreliable. |

I should qualify that statement with:
If it were produced, cost less than the other choices of rock-it's I'd have at the time, and I actually needed a car, and had a b2b lifetime warranty, or was used and all "issues/recalls" performed/serviced already.
I'd take just about anything with those stipulations, though.

Looking interesting. Don't forget to radius the leading edge of those kilts. |

Heh Heh... Why I laugh?
Good point. I think that's a job for foam and a rasp. I might also radius the lower edge of the skirts...er kilts as well to reduce them shedding little vortexicles.
I also have a plan for the airdam: Cut a slot in some white electrical conduit, slide on and fasten. It could even be a little bit adjustable.
p.s. to Christ... I think you've spawned another "ecomoddism" |

What? Kilts? LOL.
Probably ought to add that one to the glossary, eh?
I think the laughing was b/c of the "enhance" comment in your pic post.
It's a funny thing that happens in a movie that I can't recall the name of, nor any of the people who acted in it. Funny movie, though.
