Default Show me your side skirts, splitters, diffusers

As I seem determined to spend more on mods than I spent on the car, I'm really liking the look of carbon fiber ground effects on the RC-F.
However being a new owner, I have no idea what options there are. Show me what you have.

I have a 2015 and plan on getting a front splitter at some point as I think the newer models look much better with the factory front splitter. I think I will go with a black nylon though as I will definitely scrape it. I like the NIA ones. I also wonder how well they stay on at high speeds.

Good call, I've never heard of these guys (or anyone lol). I like the side skirts as well.

I will also do a chin spoiler eventually. My ideal chin spoiler is actually the OEM 2020+ RCF chin spoiler. Cannot believe they did not put such a well-flowing spoiler on the 2015 - 2019 RCF. It really completes the look and works so well with the body lines. I would look for something with a similar design most likely in carbon fiber.

I have the Tom's CF body kit for my GSF, which I think they have for the RCF. I'm extremely happy with the body kit, it is high quality, compliments the car's look and flows with its lines; in addition, the car is very stable during high speeds, which tells me that the bodykit is made to be functional and not just looks.

I have a Skipper front lip and Skipper side skirts. Rear diffuser is from Lexon. I chose the skipper front lip because unlike most others offered, it doesn’t “stick out” too much, so chances of scraping it is less. Car sits fairly low now for not being bagged, and I have not scraped it so far.

Not the closest pics, but it is AG Style kit bought from a vendor off of a RCF facebook group. Very reasonably priced and pretty good quality!

I went with the full NIA kit on mine. They did not offer CF at the time I bought it but in all honesty I would never go CF again.

CF is easily damaged and next to impossible to repair to the point it looks like it was never damaged.

The NIA kit is very sturdy and will take some serious punishment and won’t break if you go through a deep puddle or clip something accidentally with it.

They can also paint match it. I opted for black on my Infrared car as the contrast looks much better.

CF skirts will be subject to a lot of stone chips courtesy of your front tires so if you do decide to go the CF route be ready.
