Ouch... I don't understand why people put stuff like that on an otherwise plain wrx.. if there was full bodywork done and stuff like that, it would probably fit in better but in stock form it doesn't look right.

I can understand if that was done to display a product, but if it isn't, then blah.

I like the diffuser. Canards are funky.

its exceptable if he is at the track, but if he is driving that on the street for looks, thats just plain ugly.

Well Im sure he has a reason, But I think if he had a wide body or something it would look much better. Laters Mikal

I dunno, I kind of like it but ONLY if it matched the rest of the car. With an aggresive ride that could look good.

i'm confident that i can make a COMPLETE appraisal of the car's asthetics from a smallish almost fish-eyed pic of the front end

Aren't the canards supposed to be flush with the sides of the car?

Drop the canards, and leave the diffuser on.

But if the canards are a must,

Round off the corners of the canards (if its possible), so that it flows with the body lines of the car. Running one canard on each side would probably look less over the top.
