Default Rice?

i was wondering if anyone had any experience with this? http://www.kamispeed.com/produ...7bacc
thought that looks pretty sick.
It being a "Universal "CFRP" Rear Diffuser" i shouldnt have any trouble putting this on a stock rear bumper, right?
thanks.

i agree, that car works because all the other parts go well with the car. That part alone just wouldnt work.

I take it your after the piece just for the looks, because on a street car that thing is totally pointless.

actually that thing has a purpose.. i think in club VTEC, the owner of spoon sports talks to tsyuchia about the defuser kit.. i dont really remember but he said it has something to do with the air that flows under the car goes between those thingys and it helps keep it more stable at high speed.

looks like a frickin space ship. I say unless its actually engineered to work with the car, and you plan on serious road racing, then is it worth it. Other than that, lame. It's like buying a dc-5 type-r spoiler for downforce.. psss

I think it looks okay, if you race i would say it may actually add some function. However i would spend money elsewhere, like suspension mods!

If you have a complete flat underbody under the whole car ahead of it so the airflow is smooth (like on a Ferrari), then it might do something. Otherwise, Uncle Ben's all the way.

It's better to make it a racing version, rather than making it LOOK like a racing version.

not a fan but if you could pull it off the diffuser in the middle would be all i would want, not the fancy flares around the outside, over all

Yeah that's pretty dope. Do I spot a J's exhaust?

Diffusers do add function especially for road racing which they're used a whole lot in. As far as "rice" goes, I'd say no because people don't rock diffusers like chrome lipped wheels or fog lights. I think the blue Type-R is really aggressive looking and I wouldn't doubt that the aero mods help it out on the track. Buying for looks = Spend your money they way you'd like though!
