The rear of the floor and diffuser is made out the same texture-less dark brown material that they used on the shrouding of the fan exhaust of the mp4-26. Very interesting.Crucial_Xtreme wrote:right click view image

So is the splitter so I doubt it's only for heat. Probably just very hard since I noticed some dents in the floor before they cut it out and put metal there and then returned with the brown composite.n smikle wrote:The rear of the floor and diffuser is made out the same texture-less dark brown material that they used on the shrouding of the fan exhaust of the mp4-26.

I'm thinking that the floor and diffuser are painted, since the bits around the wheel that we know are metal are now exactly the same color and sheen.n smikle wrote:Not the normal checkered carbon fibre any more that is for sure.
