Factory Body Kit
#12
OK, I admit, I havent been under my car in a while so I cant remember what ur talking about.
The next question is.....
Does anyone make a full undercarriage w/ ground effects, like a ferrarri or something. Y'know downforce without spoilers etc...
I think that would be cool.

that only works at 140 mph....how often do you do that and how much does a wind tunnel cost to develop it? :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant:
I have always said that someone comes out with a bumper or side skirts, and people think they are giving the car a aerodynamic advantage by bolting this crap on, Mazda spends countless hours in the windtunnel to design a car, and some backyard guy makes a fiberglass bumper or hood and people think its the best thing since white bread.
Where is the proof? I think its a mental thing, trying to sell yourself on the idea after, kinda like " I spent $5000 on this kit, man does the car feel better"

Personally I think unless a body kit has actuall wind tunnel testing to varify any gains it is BULLSHIT.
