    Subtle Rear Apron choices

    Getting ready to do my bumper swap and I need to get a rear apron to finish off the back end - otherwise it will look a little funny.

    What is a relatively subtle rear apron that I could use? I don't want anything like the Racing Dynamics or anything too big.

      I think I was thinking of the RD for the early models -- the one that flares a little as being NOT what I want.

        I would tell you to get the early 3 piece racing dynamics, but it would probably be impossible to find. I dont think mine is low enough. The zender would be good because its not too deep, but the one that you would want is only made for aluminum bumpers, like on beej's car. Not sure what else along the lines of aprons for plastic bumper cars.

            Bingo, but good luck sourcing one. Trust me I tried once. ;)

                the rear mtech2 bumper and apron is one piece i believe. plus i dont think it would look good without the rear spoiler, imo the rear of a mtech2 on a early model seems a little out of proportion with the skinny tail lights.

                      What does that ACS look like, Greg?

                        Sounds like an eBay special to me. Keep an eye out on there, I see Zender aprons on there every once in a while.

                        EDIT: Greg, is that ACS kit made for US or euro bumpers?
