GUYS IT'S A CODED MESSAGE!!! I'VE FIGURED IT OUT!
If you reverse engineer the fluid dynamics equations used in his wind tunnel testing for the canards, you get the positions of the following words. HE'S ACTUALLY A GENIUS

Have we not learned from the 90's and early 2000's?

Widebodies are TEMPORARY(yet with no return to stock), NOT PRACTICAL(not even a little bit), RARELY FUNCTIONAL(with most applications), UGLY AS DIRT(with most applications), A WASTE OF MONEY(that you could be giving your mother for rent), RICER AS FUCK(Asia rules!), and most of all CHILDISH(tiny peepee).

This scenario is no different than trying to find an unmolested Nissan 240 or Toyota MR2. Those were both amazing cars yet to find one stock would be a rare gem due to the ignorance of people's children.

Anyone want to argue about it?

I like the clean look, but to each his own.

@ OP ...you are worrying about resale :bellyroll: .. Your car is depreciating while you are talking about others.

Let me take it back to the 1950's, 60's, 70's, and 80's too, what have we learned? Car customizing styles change, and car guys will continue to mod cars to personalize them.

Stock sucks, in my not so humble opinion.

Hey, Ludwig!

I'm sure the entire world will get right on to changing the definition and use of canards. Can we get access to the wind tunnel you used to test your setup?

This is a funny thread.

I too am worried that of the near 61800 FR-S/86s, and 29700 BRZs sold in the US since 2012, that there will soon be NOT ONE left umolested! Which is why I'm parking mine in a bubble because it will be worth MILLIONS! :D

Geez, judgmental huh....now kneel down to the wide body 86's and BRZ's. Hahaha!:lol::lol::lol:

honestly, if you have the time you should read it lol its golden:bellyroll:

Well, that was fun. Sort of...

100% accurate CFD?

Do you even closed-form, bro? SMH @ kids and their toys.

Regardless of whatever happened to OP and his car.....

Yeah, I think body kits are pretty heinous. Stick to playing Forza. I don't much like the stance crowd, I think the cars are beautiful and functional as they are. It makes me sad to see a slammed or widebody 86.

But, like others have said, everybody's got their thing. More power to 'em.

Yep, I'm here ...... ;)

I personally don't give a rip what other people do to their cars.

:D

It's okay on show cars if done right. It's ugly on road cars imo. It's your money do what you want.
