Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior fornt air splitters

does anyone have these front air splitters?? and if so do you have to drill to get them installed..it does seem like i have to drill but iam not sure please help you guys

are you talkin about canards?

yes those ones hey do i have to drill and what size looking nice by the way

oh, and does anyone have it on a stock body celica (pref. black or dark blue)

whoa you have the apr carbon fiber ones, how much did you get em for??

$21 bucks at the ecelica store

those are not the apr ones.

the ones in the store are made out of plastic, not carbon fiber.

hey you can also get the carbon fiber ones from aprperformance.com or

alittle too much i got the ones that ecelica selling pretty good

Thanks for pointing that out, they kinda look like carbon fiber in the picture; guess I should've taken the time to read the description

sighhh...i really want the carbon fiber APR ones but apparently they are meant to be illegal over here coz they are dangerous to padestrians...heck, even hood pins are apparently illegal for the same reason. so ridiculous some of the laws here...

"dangerous to pedestrians" ??? I guess when Australia run into people (sounds like often), it's only meant to knock them down - not cause physical damage

honestly though - the canards are only as dangerous as the driver's intent of the car - if you don't run into people, its the fact that you are running your car into someone that will do the most damage

Exactly! How F%%^&*n ridiculous is it! And hood pins are an important safety feature if you have a lightweight bonnet! i dunnoe how they come up with these things... but if its the law, i guess i have to follow.

since when did anyone ever follow the law

lol. true true. 'cept hood pins are kinda obvious... and if they defect your car, having to have to test road worthiness will be problematic in the future... i know this guy who turbo'ed his ride and then got defected coz he didnt have an engineers report (required by law here). pretty much had to take apart the whole engine.
