Because my roof is real carbon fiber. So it flows okay... I contacted mishimoto, as being gold and cooling was a concern. It has no impact. They tested them side by side

Looks like these instant tire depth gauge fenders are catching on

I think it looks ugly even tho its functional . idk why I don't see more people installing the bar part that goes across top to bottom. will look a lot cooler and better imo

Idk, I think jfdeltoro pulls off those fenders pretty good. Maybe cause he got those works or maybe cause the shape of the cutouts look better imo.

Looks like it does a great job of causing rock chips. If it really prevents drag, I'm wondering why manufacturers like Infiniti, Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc aren't doing this.

it probably does cause chips. manufactures don't do it probably bc of the cons u jus mentioned and most consumers will think its unattractive. plus its probably not that important

I guess to each his own. To me the greatest mod one can do is to improve their driving skills. Performance is nothing without control.
