.....how would it look?

Porsche does it routinely .......they look GREAT......would look amazing on the 12c especially in WHITE

What colour do you want to have for the slates?
(I think I can give you an idea with the help of Photoshop)

Same as the car - volcano red. Thanks

Andrew the slats should be easy to paint as they are individually stuck on! How do i know??? one fell off when i was washing the car: Super glue has a multitude of uses

Do the slats help channel airflow or just for esthetics?.......did u notify dealer what happened

Esthetics as the HS bumper dosent need them!! And no point as it was just 1 slat that didnt have enough glue,i dont get hung up about these things ,who knows it could have been my heavy handed cleaning technique???

I quite like the idea of doing them in carbon.

I saw some prototype carbon ones at McLaren SF last week and they looked great. I believe MAcarbon (a forum sponsor) is doing them.

I just ordered the first set of MAcarbon CF slats, to be installed in 1-2 weeks. Total price for all 7 pieces is $1825 and you have to give them the old parts.

Not so hot IMHO if my photoshoppery is anything to go by, too fussy:

color doesn't match perfectly but it gives a good reference... I wouldn't do it. But I'd like to see the carbon ones.

I thought the idea was good,but in practice it does not work imo

Yes that doesn't look like how I envisaged it...still think that there has to be a way of making the front a little more aggressive...

I've always liked the monochrome look, so I like it.

As promised, here are the pics of the CF slats that are being marketed by MACarbon. I'm extremely happy with the results. They did a great job of matching the factory carbon fiber weave and an interesting side benefit is that having the CF slats makes the CF splitter more noticeable than with the black slats.

Parts cost was around $2100. I'm sure than is much cheaper than having MSO supply them.

We're overlooking the obvious choice here, folks: Chrome.
