sorry, it wasn't too constructive an answer, but surely you can create the same effect with a front wing, and moving a bit of weight forward? why bother making your car look like dog-poo......

nah, tc boys run generic blobs that are supposed to look like real cars, believe me, i used to be one before i saw the light... just really not a fan of this cab forward malarky... each to their own though, i've been told it works, i'm just not going to try it is all!

Some look good, some don't, just think of it as a tuning aide!

So I take it apart from the FTW one and the one other on here thats all the choice we have? Anyone fitted a proline bulldog or j-concepts shell. May take some cutting obviously but has anyone done it?
