Opinions?

Oh yeah, and the subtly altered box flares on this car are insane. wub.gif

Pete, you talking about the front air dam? I don't see a rear spoiler. I have run much lower front air dams. On hte track in a stock class 2.0 4Cyl. Never hads a lift issue. But then it can only go so fast.

I can barely see it. The white background on a bright day was a poor choice for a dark object. It's better to take pictures of cars on cloudy days, more even lighting and much less contrast.

Definitely not too aggressive in my opinion:

Yep, I'm talking about the front air dam/front spoiler, as there is no rear one.

Can't do much about the shooter's choice on how to take those pictures, they must be 7-8 years old now. Last I heard, the car was in Canada after owner of Kinesis sold it for ~ $30k.

Still, I managed to grab one of these front spoilers and am thinking about replacing my fiberglass, aftermarket SE spoiler with it. I like the way it ties the foglight areas together.

I measure 4.9 inches maximum depth (at outside corners) on the SE and 5.375 inches depth (all the way across) on the new one.

Thoughts?

Airdam is nice, works well with the shape of the car, others I have seen do not.

But I could do without the red rims icon8.gif

It looks like the ends of the air dam falre out a little to match the beginning of the GT flares.. might be asy to fix, might not.
