And to be honest I would have liked to see a replacement spoiler like you are describing. Kind of like the old G35 whale tail. But they don't have one. So just like the furniture that I build. I knew what I wanted, found materials to make it, and with pride built it myself. And I take away a good feeling because I was able to create it and not just WISH somebody else would make it.
Just passing on feedback... it's pretty clear the wing isn't building a fan base. I think they'd do better with a moderately agressive replacement for both chrome and Sport spoiler vs strut mounts as you yourself would prefer.

Aerodynamics have come a long way in the last 30 years.

Simple proof: Look at the front bumper of ANY coupe with a TS/TS style front lip. There will be some noticeable damage from stress created by downforce

Yes, those wings on the boy racer Subaru STIs and Mitsubishi Evolutions are 100% functional.
This is certainly an entertaining thread, ricers vs racers + some science with computational fluid dynamics. Thanks for the post Mike it was a very good read. It seems the functional wings do indeed make a difference

see the before and after with the 800+BHP example.

and after the wing (very subtle wing too)

New Rear Bumper

New Carbon Fiber Roof Cover

To be honest there are a couple of small fitment issues with the front bumper, but nothing I can't live with. I like stuff perfect, but you are not going to get perfect without stamped steel or a crap load of money.

And yes the bottom of the front bumper has a Carbon Fiber lower skirt.

I will try to get some closer pics in the morning.

*pics*
Sorry man, I'm just not feeling it. Looks like a GT-R, Eclipse, and G37 got freaky, and this is their child.

Wow, this is seriously one of the ugliest kits I have seen. You had one of the most beautiful cars on here and now it looks like total crap.

Dieseldoug, do you like your current kit better than the previous one?

Blah blah blah....I've seen so many threads like this one it's ridiculous.


Example:

"SICK NEW BLUE LED'S AND UNDERGLOW KIT THAT MATCH WIT MY 16" CHROME SPINNAS YOOOOOOOO"

Thread responses:

"Dude that looks like ****"

"F@ck yourself for ruining a nice car"

"Drive your car off a bridge and go play in traffic"

OP's response to the responses:

"You guys are haters screw you I didn't ask your opinions blah blah blah"



It's as simple as this; you don't want to hear others opinions on the **** that you put on your car? Fine, that's great. BUT DON'T POST PICTURES ABOUT IT ON THE INTERNET.
We will tell you how we feel about it because we're human beings and we ALL have differing opinions. No one needs to hold your hand like a small child and sugarcoat it for you. We'll be as blunt as we want to be. Don't get offended by what people think AFTER you are so clearly seeking the public's attention for your mods. If you weren't, you wouldn't have posted pics of them in the first place, no?


The bottom line is, it's your freakin' car. Do what you want with it. You want a lift kit so you can put 26" rims on it? Go for it. You want to cut holes into the muffler for a better sound? By all means do it. You want to put LED's and lights in every corner, crack and crevice of YOUR car? Enjoy. But when you ask for others opinions, don't expect only positive ones.









Oh, and it looks like ****. Kthnxbai.
