why do ytou need em it isnt like you have a damn indy car. but if your goin to get high down force stuff that is more for looks the i would get a big ass wing and a big ass snow plow on the front (if you cant go from 0-90 in a short distance then you dont need it cause it doesnt even take affect till you hit atleast 70 but anyhow just my two cents

you do realize that a wing on a fwd car actually detracts from front traction.... you realize that, right?

anyways, you do get the downforce at every speed. it starts to shoot up around 50-60 mph.

I'm talking about something like the c-west front end for the FD RX-7, its got fins that produce downforce.... lemme see if I can find a pic...

You have a couple of options. You can get a lip like an ITR lip or WW RS, etc. You can also get a splitter, like those used on Realtime ITR's, where its basically a low ass spoiler connected by chain to the bumper in the middle.

You can also get fins like those on the RX7 made by ARC or JIC maybe? I dont remember for sure. I know Ings+1 makes fins for the DC5, but doesnt CWest also make the fins for DC2?
