JDM Toyota Aero Stabilizing Fins - Poll

Hi Guys and Gals,

I am opening up a poll to see what y'all think about this mod. I was with a fellow ft'er at a meet and we were discussing these. His rice power made my inner ricer a little bit stronger and I became more interested in the mod. I just don't know if my inner ricer is strong enough to pull it off.

Right now the opinions I've had are about 50-50 and I would like to open this up to the club to help me decide.





















So, what say you FT86club?

iirc it is functional. I remember talking with Tada-san that these parts help with vortex & depends on where you put it, you can make it or break the car's potential. Tada-san & their team have test em out on flow & so forth.

Note: You can skip til 2:35 into it

I don't like them simply cause they remind me too much of autozone stick on fender pieces. Just looks cheap.


If they were molded into the body, that would look way better

I tend not to put a price tag on my happiness. You can see my build thread here.

I know. This is the first mod that I really need a second even a third opinion on. I am really a function over form kinda guy but I just don't know if I'm strong enough to apply something like these to the body.

The poll speaks for itself but I am still wavering in my decision.

I know I'm stuck 50-50 between NO and STAHP but I snapped some outside pics and they're starting to grow on me. It's kinda like a fungus but growing none the less.
