Martin - Hamann makes those. Personaly, I think they dont look bad at all. They also have side strakes to compliment the look of the front, which aren't that bad. For some, it ruins the cleanness of the lines, but for others - adds some appeal. | ||

Call me a "purist". The design and functionality of the 360 is perfect the way it is. I agree with Martin, the front spoiler is too low for me. | ||

Hi Martin, I really like the thought process on this 360 design, I don't suppose the manufacturer has tunnel data???? Do you have an underbody photo to share? It looks like they're separating the underbody flow into two gradients rather than one as stock. I wonder if this removes some pitch sensitivity, as the 360 Challenge definatley is pitch sensitive at +100 mph. Even if this is total non-functional "gifts for your car", I like it, made me think about the function. | ||

Martin, you hit the nail on its head! Having grown up in Europe I am infected by that thinking. Whenever I see a stock car (F or not) I do feel the urge to change it. New wheels, rear wing, seats, anything. It's a cultural thing I suppose. Leaving a car stock to me is a lack of imagination. <yikes,> | ||

Kind of funny also when you think about it: In the US we (including myself) call these mods "Ricer Style" but in Europe it is widely accepted as "veredeln" (translated: enrichment). just food for thought! | ||

Don't get me wrong here. I am not saying good or bad. I personally like the 360 front spoiler although I believe it will do nothing to aerodynamics and will actually hider you when going over a curb. Just looks good. The rear diffusor is very nice and a good finish to the car. Like that a lot. I can not get into 95% of the Koenig stylings though and some Harman BMW and RUFF is way over the top for me as well. | ||

Martin - It does seem Asia and Europe are much more inclined to aftermarket products- I think U.S. just hasn't been culturally infected yet in modifying European cars drastically- We tend not to go farther than the exhaust and wheel mods. | ||

"Germany is so more into changing cars than the US.... " I noticed that too. In Europe you get a great car from Maranello and turn it into a spectacular one. Whereas in the US there is a lot of the purist culture that considers such changes sacrilege. The irony is, that it is a LOT easier to change things legally on a car in the US than in Europe. Go figure. | ||
