Mock fitting. Should I, or shouldn't I?

g-from-lancs · 5th September 2009, 03:57 PM

Im not a big fan of canards, but to be honest it looks really good on yours, so is that a yes?

iano C · 5th September 2009, 04:04 PM

Hi mate from the side they look nice ,but from the front I don't like at all.Great looking car but they just don't look right ,it might be because the cars is white they just stand out a little to much.When you look at the car from the front it the first thing that seems to catch your eye.But hey if you like them go for it .If it was my car I would leave them off,sorry just being honest.

aferx · 5th September 2009, 05:09 PM

Nope it spoils the look and lines of the GTR dont like

Adam Kindness · 5th September 2009, 05:15 PM

they look a little lost :S

Robbie J · 5th September 2009, 05:17 PM

I like

matty32 · 5th September 2009, 05:18 PM

as above you need some curved ones ideally

Trev · 5th September 2009, 07:52 PM

Not a fan tbh.

GTRSTILL · 5th September 2009, 07:55 PM

No one would say it about the mines r34, but anything else I think it looks chavvy

alex2005 · 5th September 2009, 08:00 PM

Not for me, they look like a bit tacky to be honest, "Halfords Tuning".

Mikster · 5th September 2009, 08:01 PM

Not a fan at all, lovely looking car though which would look even better without those canards. The worst ones though, IMHO are the Garage Defend canards, they are just silly and pointless.

GTRSTILL · 5th September 2009, 08:07 PM

Amen to that.... Saw a fella at Perfect Touch once in a silver 33. I don't think anyone had the heart to tell him how daft it looked. Like knight rider in pursuit mode... Basically ruined the cars looks

Irish GTR · 5th September 2009, 08:24 PM

Most canards do NOTHING for a car,they are only asthetic mods and Im ot a fan of them at all.

Also they are illegal and you could be in serious trouble with the law/courts if a padestrian cut themselves off these canards.Big law suit too.

StretchGSK · 5th September 2009, 11:46 PM

I am a fan of canard and am looking for some myself.
But as a couple have said they need to be a bit more curved.
I also think one long and one small one together look best.

Think Mines canards..

LRP · 6th September 2009, 01:31 AM

got to agree leave them off,, but must say wish i had a garage with that much space

plumwerks · 6th September 2009, 04:23 AM

Nah,leave them off.

DarkChild · 6th September 2009, 10:01 AM

Thanks for the feedback! I'll be leaving them off then.

Piggaz · 6th September 2009, 12:37 PM

No way. Leave your car as is. it looks perfect... anymore and it will look 'overdone'.

doggy · 6th September 2009, 11:59 PM

Yey - deffinantly - they flow with all the black / white theme
