If it was one piece it would look good.. I have the front splitter on my car but that is all.. I won't put anything else on it unless you could buy this kit as one solid part.
The styling looks good if you can imagine it without the different colors of black,material and stacking on top of each other.

couldn't be said more perfect/ the fact of poor integration and color mismatching makes this great idea a fail.
great idea, poor implementation.

Locking a thread for Bashing is understandable, but so far MOST people have been giving constructive criticism
Personally, I don't like them at all. They look like something someone would do at home who couldn't afford a body kit - which OBVIOUSLY isn't the case. The front splitter doesn't look bad at all, but then when you start piling on more PLASTIC it's really over doing it.
The idea behind them is good, but I don't think they were done right. On Corvettes they are much more 3-Dimensional, these things are just flat and odd looking.
But as long as you like them, who gives a rats *** what I think.

uuuuuuhhhhhh not a fan sorry. Like said before if you like then you like and rock on. But I think the execution was carried out all wrong. If there was a good looking splitter up front and a diffuser out back that was a well fitting piece not one that is self tapped on into the fenders and so on, I may purchase it. The side skirts just look like they are waiting to bust you ankles open when you forget they are there. Carbon Fiber would def. help out but still not a fan of the "I cut this out of ABS plastic lets self tap it onto the car" If you like it thats all that matters!

its something a few people like and are doing to their cars. not everyone likes the West wings kit or the Mecham hood/wing, but some do, thats why they put them on their car. Its not a fad, these arent flying off the shelves, there are only a handful of people with these products, myself included.

Ah... sadly it looks like the body is now sitting on a plate... Not digging it. If it was more intergrated or if it flowed a little better.. or if it was thicker and rounded out to conform to the body... or.. if it was carbon fiber.. or if your car was a zr1... it would look better.

Does anyone know if the canards have any performance affect on the car at all, or if it is just for styling?
I know the front splitters can create some extra front down force and better aerodynamics but I don't know about the side splitters and canards.
