I have a wing sitting in the garage right now I want to install, I've never seen it in person installed, but I KNOW it is going to look sick. And that's the only reason why I'm okay with having my stock sport wing taken off, and new holes drilled. Otherwise, I wouldn't do it.

I will say though, Patricks right, if you decided to get yourself a nice wing to compliment the canards, they would be more fitting.

You don't need akebono brakes for stop and go traffic. You don't need 332 hp to go 70mph. While agree with your position, the argument is not sound for a person who purchased a sports car

Just read this, I think you made the right choice. I personally don't like the looks of the canards, but that doesn't really matter. What matters is that if you're not 110% convinced you want this mod, then don't do it because later on down the road you're gonna be like, "this was the worst idea ever..."

The argument is still valid because lots of people buy sports cars and never do anything with them. But those that prefer this style of driving don't do mods that are borderline irreversible without cost/headache.

I think the Nismo bumper has a different curvature which will not make it flush with the canards. At the same time, the canards are pretty bendable, I am sure if you want to make it fit, you can do it. |

Since we are pointing fingers at people. To clarify, no one looks at a super car and says "gee I wish that looked like a ford escort, it's just too flashy". If the guy wants to add some trim, who cares. IMO it really makes the front end look more aggressive.
