Zedrush Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Hi guys, just ordered a load of carbon goodies, front side rear etc, now question is carbon canards. What do you guys think? Will they take away the look of the car, add style or not look right? Just debating about getting them and need advice since you guys so graciously gave me regarding neons lights Started a poll, They are canards for the standard oem bumper, my car is black similar to attatched?

Pingu2 Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 after being victor meldrew in my posts yesterday I will be all happy and frothy today and vote yes! I think they will look OK on black car (look shite on the orange), and will be different which I know you will like Quote
Stew Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 I don't personally like it on a standard bumper. It looks sweet on the version 2 Nismo bumper though! Quote
rickya Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 I have some old plastic windscreen ice scrapers you could stick on if you want Failing that you could use plastic shoe horns; cut up frisbees; cut up plastic tea trays;etc etc !!!! I think you know which way I voted!! Quote
Digsy Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Sorry, don't like canards either. Too fussy on a Zed. Quote
rickya Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Carnards could suit a car of a more aggresive/angular shape: e.g Lancer Evo 8/9; Lambos; new Megane sport; etc but not sure on clean curving lines of zed Quote
sinbad Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 I don't personally like it on a standard bumper. It looks sweet on the version 2 Nismo bumper though! +1!!!!!! Quote
Sarnie Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 They look rubbish on a standard bumper especially as they go over the reflectors Also think you should only have one canard and not two. If it was one canard on the V2 nismo bumper I'd say maybe/yes. Two over the reflectors on a standard bumper and i'm voting no..................... Quote

jim Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Too fussy - they just look as if they have been stuck on as an afterthought, not as part of an overall design. Might go better on a Nismo bumper, though. Quote

sl114 Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Depends on the bumper, OE one - NO! On another without reflectors - YES! Quote

Zedrush Posted October 17, 2007 Author Posted October 17, 2007 how about if I take the reflectors out and put black mesh there instead withe canards over the top? Quote
sl114 Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Nooo it wont fit properly. Thinking about it, i dont know if the stance of the zed is right for canards? Its not low or wide enough to carry them off Quote
rmmackfc Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Nope +1 You planning on caging small animals behind it.... Quote
rickya Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Forget the canards IMO: Less is more, (especialy when it comes to womens clothing!!! ) Quote
Andy Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 My vote is a no i'm afraid. Less is most definatley more on the Z. Quote
sinbad Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 Nope +1 Still would'nt look right. Only on the Nismo V2. Quote
sinbad Posted October 17, 2007 Posted October 17, 2007 My vote is a no i'm afraid. Less is most definatley more on the Z. Says the guy who had the Lambo doors and Veilside kit! Quote
Zedrush Posted October 17, 2007 Author Posted October 17, 2007 okay now I stand at a red cross against neons, and a red cross against canards guess i should be thankful for not wasting my money Quote
