yeah, the canards were going to be a pita to make fit the bumper because of the curve...so i made what i thought would look cool. i think i have somewhere in the area of 2 hours of work in the whole splitter/canards project

Let's look at it this way...If it was for appearance only, pretty much a fail. Now it is a splitter, and in its defined purpose is for performance, and secondarily, to protect the bumper cover. For these purposes, Winner! Most here sound like they are judging appearance, so is it Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancement, or is it functional? It can be argued that a typical splitter is RICE, and this guy's is just the opposite. That said, the pained adjuster/supports improve the appearance. Hopefully you have learned a good lesson Fury, there are many critics lurking around here. Do your thing!

I like the look of it with the black better. But I've always been told " It doesnt have to look good to go fast! "

At first glance i thought it just looked a little strange. It's actually grown on me a bit, kind of like it. If the hardware were painted black along with black wheels all the way around it would be a sick ride. Good job man. love the stance in that pic.

All they're doing is telling me what THEY want to do with my car. I have the same response every time.

If you don't like it, buy one yourself, and do what you want to do with the car, and quit bitchin' about what I should do with MY car!

Sorry, but everyone else just doesn't say anything. It is absolutely one of the worst things I have ever seen on a car.
