Canards on JDM front
Saw a pic a couple days ago. Really liked the canards. I was wondering where i could get them and how much they go for. Are there several diff. companies that make these or just a couple or one? And how exactly do they fit on the bumper? any drilling involved? any info appreciated. thanks.

The canards provide a noticeable improvement. The make the car feel more stable and planted at higher speeds (noticeable after 65mph) and help reduce understeer and improve steering response in corners.
For hardcore track enthusiasts, I'd highly recommend trying them.
On the downside, a proper and effective installation requires you to drill holes in your bumper which are a pain when you decide to remove your canards. They are fairly pricey as most Japanese brand canards are hand made carbon fiber pieces. The more common brand to people here is J's Racing. Check with any of shops in my signature if you need more info.
Also you should be aware that different size and curvature canards which are intended for different cars. Keep that in mind when you are selecting which you want.
