So your JDM headlights, your Toms tails, your foglights, your vinyl wrap. All rice. Since we can't know the intent of the owner(if they wanted canards for looks or if they are a track junkie) we can't pass judgement on if they are rice or functional. Get over yourselves.

You misunderstand. The issue isn't that they look cool but are not functional. The issue is that they look silly and are not functional.
Often people will post something silly like this and then, when people say it looks silly, they'll try to justify it by saying they need it for performance. When that happens, the mod still looks silly. But then we also know that person is a poser. It's perfectly alright if you want to make your car look silly. But if you're going to go with tacky, own it and don't try to make goofy excuses for why you need it.
The other mods you mentioned may or may not be silly and may or may not be functional. Right now we're just discussing canards, which are not functional and look silly. Don't get mad, though. Wouldn't you rather know why people are laughing at your car?
