They dont have to be exact. Just give me all 4 views (top, bottom, side, and head on) in 2d drawings with rough dimensions and I can turn it into a 3d drawing no problem.

Is 5 fins between the exhaust tips to many? With how tall and narrow the back looks, will it look weired? Maybe 4? Mike can you photoshop that to 4 to see what it looks like.

If you do 4 maybe thicken them up, otherwise 5 in that thickness looks good.

I like those 5. The car comes with an odd number of humps down there from the factory, if you look.

I like the symmetrical aspect of having one centered, personally, but if it's not too much trouble to sketch one with 4, it would definitely help to have a pic of each for a side-by-side comparison.

The SB's rear end needs some love.

Seriously though if there is anyway to make it look more aggresive at a decent price I think you should sell plenty. We don't even have aftermarket Tail lights yet.

Id say 3 in the middle would be best. You could thicken up the middle 3 slightly and then have 1 fin on the end. Now would this be a 3M stick on over the OEM one or will the Sedan owners have to bust out their Jigsaws? Us SB owners should just be able to swap plastic back there. Im sure the GTS SB owners want love as well. I dont get why the SB guys cant get some love in the Aftermarket world. Not even aftermarket spoilers are available yet. Im going to keep up my rant by saying Mitsu needs to come out with a 2013 Evo X Sportback to finish the last production year off. The sketch design for the rear airdam looks great though. Keep up the good work.

I was looking at the rear end yesterday, and I was leaning towards 3 or 4. The area is just so narrow and if I do to many, it will look RICE. Go and look for your selves. The pics are not very good at giving you a good and complete picture.
