Not a drifter by any means, so I don't know any better. But from all the teams other that do drift, they seem to want to minimize surface area to the side of the spoilers and such.
Read up on why rally cars have them.

Found a picture of the Silk Blaze kit from the front: http://instagram.com/p/UhZmLbH2z6/

I thought it looked cool from the back, now it just looks ugly. I still like the spoiler though.

ZELE! I was not planning to "spoiler" my car, however I find that crosswinds on the freeway say differently! Am I the only one that's noticed this?
