I dont think it looks all that bad. At least its purposefull. Rice would be sticking a GT-Wing on the back for just road driving. At least this one is going to be tracked.

If it's going to be a track car only I can understand but if that tuning is for road version then well uhummm.... #¤&"!

One thing I noticed in my last trip to Japan is that I don't really see the tricked out rides during the day, ie as a commuter/daily drive.

vile. And I don't believe for a moment it is functional.

Althought it does look nicer in the 2nd picture I have to agree with Vips

I would really like to know how it sounds with the Blitz exhaust on.

That rear wing looks dated on a new car like that .

honestly i think the cannards look nice, i dont think they look like rice.

i know that normal cannards dont work for teh gtr as shown by amuse:
Power House Amuse R35 GT-R Into 59's @ Tsukuba
annother link:
Amuse breaks the one minute barrier « Kultivate’s Weblog

these should work much better due to the design of the gt-r's front end. i would like to see a bit more in the front splitter, but its nice as is.

alot of these racing teams do add these things on for function, not rice. they do help, and here is one team that uses wind tunel testing to prove it (tho others have done so too, especially this day, a few teams tested the parts).
Sunline 350Z at the windtunnel « Kultivate’s Weblog
annother car.
ASM kicking it up a notch « Kultivate’s Weblog

so i know alot of these kits are just for show, but this honestly hasnt been provent to be benifit or not, im going to say it is, thats just my thing. alot of people also like the voltex wing, i belive you can tune it for your track/car. its rice if you put it on a car thats not racing, but its benificial on a race track, especially for such a car such as the GT-R.

i would like to see the front fascia to have air dams like the concept, make those functional to have ducts to the brakes.

Looks like a sea captain from the 1700s, the sideburns look; could be a Harley rider, too.
