APR BRZ Canards and Front Lip

Just saw this on their facebook and thought I'd share it



they listed
Pre-Preg Carbon Fiber Air-dam (BRZ)
Pre-Preg Carbon Fiber Canard Set. (BRZ)
Pre-Preg Carbon Fiber Brake duct intlets. (BRZ)

Curious to see how it looks with painted bumper and on the car, cause I've always had a thing for canards

How are they attached? If it's just 3M tape you will not gain any down force. They do look very nice, but even if they're mounted very securely and don't flex, don't expect them to do too much. I'm definitely not an expert, but I've taken enough fluid mechanics to be skeptical of such things.

If you really want downforce for the track look into splitters. APR's looks pretty good but I'm sure a DIY solution will be much cheaper.

I think they are still in the R&D phase. I haven't seen a vendor selling them yet.

we put some downforce on your downforce so you can downforce while you downforce. Downforce aero.

That does look crazy, but reminds my of how the German touring cars look.
