Rear Diffuser

[Riced_Civic]

Hi i was just wondering which material would be best to build a rear diffuser, i was thinking plastic or plywood?

what other material would be useful be4 i start building, keeping in mind it has to be easy to shape with hand tools

PLEASE PLEASE no WOOD parts on any car unless it's part of the interior trim.

Why not? I actually saw the HKS CT230 when, it sported a plywood front diffuser...LOL...

But no, I would either use Aluminium or Carbon Fibre...

Food for thought, the Pro-Concept Civic does 1:48s at Eastern Creek with much Aero with a 1.6 engine.
