I'm currently working on building my $550 1g Eclipse into a track car. I found a cage, suspension, wheels/tires, brake calipers and rotors and a few minor engine mods. Now I'm stuck though, I need to find some aero pieces. When it comes to motor work and minor body work I'm pretty good at it but like for the front splitter for example I keep setting people making their own but I just can't do that. I'm not afraid of how it'd look so much as me knowing whether or not it'd make a difference. The rear diffuser is another thing, does anyone make diffuser for these cars? And what do y'all recommend for a wing, think I'll need one our no? I'm gutting the whole rear end and I'm afraid that I'll need something to keep the rear end tight to the ground when braking hard. Also looking for any other recommendations! I'm keeping the 4g37 and it is staying front wheel drive. Feel free to mention any ideas! The car is being built for roads like The Tail of the Dragon and Pikes Peak.
 
You will not get many responses on aeros or diffuser, there are a couple of threads on diffusers one by Atuca, but I dont know if it was finished or not.
It involves a lot of work to make one.
On the wing if you search there are also a few write ups, including one I started, whether the stock ones are functional or not.
On mine I will be going with a 1.6 engine, n/a and still dont know if the wing will be necessary as speeds may not warrant one, even if they could help at slower speeds.
I think you should do everything you have now and worry about aeros later.
