hi everyone im about to buy a suzuka blue 05 with the front chin spoiler and the trunk spoiler. i was wondering what you guys think about the side strakes? need them or not.... post some side shots of your cars please . anything would be helpful though thanks

 

side strakes

 

hardly worth it unless you really like the look. just wait and get side skirts if you want something. The car looks juuuust fine without the side strakes.

 

Trunk spoiler? Sure.

Chin spoiler? Be real careful parking, as curbs will wipe it off.

Side strakes? Not my cup of tea. Car looks great without.

 

side strakes = waste of money. IMO

Now that i think about it, even the front spoiler is OK.

I wish there was more aftermarker choices besides the mugen.

Is J's goin to make any front spoilers for the AP2? i hope so!

 

to side strakes....

 

I heard you have to drill a hole to install them so

 

Don't get them if you plan to ever drop the car at all or autocross it (Unless you will NEVER hit a cone ), they will be the lowest point on your car and trust me, after you drill the 1/2" hole in each side the plastic clip you stick in it breaks off quite easily.. oops. My 1st S2K came with them and I wish it hadn't, .. spent over $800 replacing the strake on the pass side... TWICE (I couldn't leave that giant hole in the bodywork) (and they are only sold as a set, Stealer price over $400)
My $.02
DON'T WASTE YOUUR $$$

 

I'd pass on the side strakes too.
