they are little peices of material that connect to bumper to help create better airflow... some to help cool brakes.... some to help with downforce and/or aerodynamics or the car.... If im wrong or missed something someone chime in.... but thats what I think they are.

I think the D1 or GT theme only really works for a car capable of drifting and racing, ie. AWD or RWD on a FWD car it just looks silly.

well of course you'd think that because there has not been that many FF cars to sport it, everyone is shooting for sleeper and shokka looks... why not a GT/d1 theme FF... hey, we got the mazda 6's on the Le Manns and those are GT style!!

well... i can see it both ways...

like y make your car look that way when its FF.

but then agen he's just making it look that way cuz its his style.

In the end... its up to you, if you like it, then don't care what others say.

IMO: I am just not feeling the wing =]

Like dont get me wrong. I love my lancer but after looking at all the money you spent and then how much power it has, its kinda a dissapointment.

I love my lancer too... its just the engine can't put up with much... I wish they kept the same body style and put in a better engine... even the RA engine would be dope.
