eltrouble 07-07-2005 12:31 AM

it could be a fun little project...but honestly nobody is going to care enough to look at your splitters.
Subie Gal 07-07-2005 01:35 AM

what the fang is he on about then? :confused:

It's actually quite easy to do. Just mask off the surrounding areas of the "fangs" and spray away. It was easy to do for me and I like the look of them being black more than white...

[QUOTE=eltrouble]aren't strakes the things on the side of the car? :confused:[/QUOTE]

Yeah, those are the "side strakes" and these on the hoodscoop are referred to as the "vertical strakes."

Do they actually perform a function on our cars? Or are they just bling? I know the 'side strakes' on high end cars actually help performance...it has something to do with aerodynamics, downforce, brake cooling, etc etc. something like that.
WShade 07-07-2005 10:46 PM

They are applied with double sided tape, so I doubt they have the strength to help with performance.

Are you asking about the side strakes or the hoodscoop ones? I think in both cases they are for cosmetic purposes ;)

I'm talking about the ones...say...on Ferraris, and MC12s and such. They're VASTLY different from the ones on our cars, but people still call them side strakes. They appear to serve a performance function, these types of cars aren't usually subject to much 'blingety bling bling'

I call them splitters... I kept them black because I decided to put a black mesh to cover the hoodscoop hole. In my opinion they look better black for my project.
