Be nice Mike, that's subjective

I wouldn't do it unless I was running splitters and wings though, just saying.

I am in for answers though because that may happen someday...

Definitely subjective as far as looks, I think the front end on mine just looks the business and without the canards it would seem lacking. How they look on a stock bumper, well to me it doesn't look so right.

unless you're going to track the car and really need front downforce, dont use it.
as with tow hooks, looks pretty dumb...but that's just me.

I have only seen the Carbon Creation universal canards on a GE8, Fittedonem has them on his Fit:

https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/2nd-...white-ge8.html

Other than those, your other options are universal APR:

APR Performance - Front Bumper Canards=

Or Universal Chargespeed

Evasive Motorsports | PH: 626.336.3400 Mon-Fri, 9am-6pm PST: Chargespeed Universal Type L Carbon Canard

I would just go with the Carbon Creation ones since they aren't too big and match the GE8 well

I like the ones fittedonem has in his thread he says there made by nrg half the price of carbon creations but look the same I'm so back and forth on it and I am going for the rice look all the flare and aggressive lips diffusers and stickers makes me happy

Sorry that's right, they are NRG. I have seen them in person many times.

I wouldn't call this look ricey, you just need to have the supporting mods to pulloff the whole look.

I have run canards for the last 6 years on my 350z and I have always liked the look but others don't. As long as you like them that's all that matters
