Function of front bumper cannards?
IMO I like the way bumper cannards look, but what kind of aerodynamic purpose do they offer?

Dealer installed that crap on my new black EVO. They actually drilled 6 holes in the bumper cover to install them! Idiots. It was the only EVO around so I had no choice...

I have them on my tarmac and I think they look great. Imagine someones rearview! The car is that much wider. IMO it only looks good on black. It gives our car the TME VI front bumper look

The black hides the fact that they look gay... It makes the car look like it's trying too hard... In other words, me no likey!!
