the grey clashes a bit with the red, but the two-tone is definately a bold approach. looks good!  its grey because it isnt paint yet...

come on v3nom, you know a spoiler is only for looks...it's only functional on rear or all wheel drive cars and the only possible way it would be functional on our cars is if we were going over 120 mph...otherwise all it does is make the car look good...

spoiler only helps downforce which keeps the car stable at high speeds. if you think bout it with out the spoiler the front would be pushed down too much and there is nothing to relieve this pressure but a spoiler. this keeps the car more balenced on all 4 wheels helping it's turning at high speeds. where by the way you will find me

didn't you read fatty mcbutterpants post? it also helps if you're into auto-x, you just turn the wing all the way down & you're set. Most spoilers are just for looks, but there are a few that are practical, like apr's. why do you think it has a similar design as the ones used in the JGTC series. who cares if it's fwd or rwd, downforce is downforce

you get a spoiler 'cuz it adds downforce in the rear when you're on the highway i dunno, i just dont see why you would get something if it's not functional. I'ts gonna look once it's painted, no doubt about that ![[Linked Image from psyddicus.homestead.com]](http://psyddicus.homestead.com/files/ff.gif) Laws of Physics, people. Car with a light rear end needs more down force to keep the back tires planted to the road when changing lanes under high speed. But, most of you wouldn't know that, because you've never driven at high speeds  i like how you think

I'ts gonna look once it's painted, no doubt about that Id be funny to see someone put a rear spoiler on the front, for laughs... (im not talking about front lip spoilers, those are practical!)

I think i'm going to be sick! THAT'S AWESOME! This was the last thread i clicked before i go to bed, im glad i clicked on it. I've been pondering forver weather or not to do the NSX vents, now that i've seen it, i'm gonna do it! Thanks! Sweet ride.
Knowing the path and choosing the path are two different things.
