Ralliart Carbon Fiber Vortex Generator

I have been looking all over and it seems like only Evo's roofs can fit a carbon fiber VG, does anyone know where us Ralliart's can buy a CF VG?

Since the body shape of the RA and Evo are the same shouldnt an Evo CF VG fit an RA?

Rexpeed does have one that fits the RA but its not CF. Ive searched high and low for a CF one as well and no luck so if anyone has found one please let us know.

Yeah i saw the fiberglass one but I really want a carbon fiber one. Maybe I'll contact them and see if theres an interest on there part to produce a CF version...maybe if theres enough of us that want it they will make it.

Yeah it would be nice. Rexpeed hasnt made anything new for the Ralliart in a long time. They dont even have a Ralliart specific section on their website. Im still trying to get them to make the cf side spats they have for the 2010+ Ralliart because the ones they have are only for 2009.

I just got an email from them, here it is:

Hi


We do plan on making carbon VG for your car. Should be ready in 4-6 weeks.


If you have any questions feel free to ask.


Kind Regards,
Derek Chen

Message: Hello there, I've been searching around the evolutionm.net forums (douggievee) and came across your posts about the vortex generators that you make. I have a 2011 Lancer Ralliart and I can only find carbon fiber VG,s for the Evo X roof. Would you be able to produce a carbon fiber VG for my ralliart? I know there would be more interest than just me for that kind of product.
