there's goig to be more CTR and evo wannabes liao. before JDM CTR haven't on the road, already got ppl copy almost like identical liao.

 

the new evo x's fender flare isn't very pronounced. body size almost the same as the lancer ex, a simple change of the bumper, exhaust tip, spoiler, bonnet and add on the silly brembo covers will do the trick.

 

the wrx sti will be more difficult to copy as the front and rear fender flares are very obvious. some more got quad exhaust.

 

the UK CTR definitely sealed its own looks.

those undercarriage neon lights are very bo liao too. and so are all types of exterior lighting mods, like those so-called "multi-directional" LED light bulbs. KNN, only need to shine either forward or backwards... multi-directional for fark. [hur]

Confirm is that GT wing that can be used to hang underwear to dry on the run.

 

but that provide some value to the GT wing.. at least it allow the underwear to dry.

 

for fake sunroof, you can hang your laundry in the car and expect some sunshine on it [laugh]

i think fake brembos is the worse of the lot..

 

 

beside not adding value, it's dangerous as it could get dislodge as well [:|]

those fake brembo are bolt-on cover right? what if it come loose while driving? I think will scratch the rims, or even worse, sever the brake hose?! Possible?

 

 

The worse is that it fly behind and affect cars tailgating it to laugh at the bimbo cover [:|][laugh]

Bro

 

I agree with you..

 

A normal spoiler is better looking that oversized GT wings.

 

A properly designed GT Wing adds significant downforce and is important for trekking or even cornering at higher speeds during daily drives.

 

GT Wings like those from J'S Racing, Mugen and Voltex are wind tunnel tested and proven. It is a FUNCTIONAL mod for JDM makes, not "unnesessary aesthetic".

 

Spoilers (those properly designed ones) have a different function from GT Wing - they diffuse the air flow to reduce drag created by vacuum at the rear.

 

Spoilers = largely diffusing function

GT Wings = Downforce with some diffusing function

 

These are true of true JDM and properly designed originals.

 

I hope we be aware of these functions before laughing at GT Wing as "coffee tables, underwear hangers". May be true on improperly designed Wings, but certainly NOT so for originals that are track tested and wind tunnel tested.

I agree with you but we shd also further stated that the Gt wings should be fitted on the car they are designed for rather than modify to fit into any other make [:)]
