Do you feel it is attached strongly enough so that in 100mph+ they wouldn't pop off? lol

Seems like it would create quite a bit of downforce and makes me wonder how strong the attachement plugs are...

Ive been looking to pick these up every since i saw them but i dont know how to order them ?

I don't really ever spend much time above 100. But you have to look at the car that this was engineered for - The Griffon Concept. This is essentially a beefed up race car 86. I'm sure that it has spent a good amount of time above 100 and they still released this part to the public.

There might not seem like there is much mounting stability there but it's engineered just like any other exterior part.

I got em from japanparts.com. They're on the front page of the site.

I got to see these in real life. Glad i did...

Online, they look great, in real life they don't fit the car well. The way the car curves and the way the fender fin curves just don't suit the car well at all. It stands out too much and is a bit awkward after a while.

This is a mod that is definitely not for everyone. It does protrude pretty far off the vehicle compared to any of the Suby, Toyota or aftermarket versions.

Which brand of side ground effects are those. Look good on the white. I'm jealous of those TRD fins
