Since I sold my car I took all the aero mods of it. Now I will reveal what they really look like.

They look like they came with the car. So clean. I want the aeromods on my Triumph to look factory when I install them.

How much weight did they add?

I'm sure members here would appreciate it if you outlined the exact process you used to bolt them into place.

They weight less than 5lbs. I mainly looked for metal thick enough to not bend from rocks or other debris hitting it.

I basically just measured and measured till I was blue in the face.

I will. My #1 concern is making the car look 100% stock.
My tire guy didn't even notice the front undertrays and they were right there in front of his face.
