HNNNGGG those prices. I would be interested in the carbon fiber lip though. (not $1000 interested though)

The fender flares look a bit silly the way they just cut off.

ALSO. I WANT THOSE FREAKIN HEADLIGHTS!

Even here in Canada where everything is overpriced and expensive... This is way too much... Looks good but not worth that much.

I am sorry I'll keep my money and start saving for a new car. [crazyeye] I was really looking foward to these too.

Sorry, those flares have missing parts, like covering the front of the tires, they look incomplete and goofy to me and aerodynamically they are simply wrong:(

I will look at the rest of their parts a little closer though.

Edit,
Just did, bunch of ricer parts is basically what they have, pretty expensive ones at that.

The splitter is the only viable part they have made so far and not that great a design.

----------

I am speaking from a function over form perspective, for those that want to get looked at more than want actual real performance parts will go elsewhere.

The wing extension would work better if they covered the holes in the stock wing with it.

Splitter would be fairly effective but not into the design or price.

Flares are missing parts, aerodynamically wrong.

Side skirt design that we can see is not optimized and unless flat on the bottom and smooths the air flow, useless.

Lights, need to see them in action to tell for sure but looks like they got something right.

Wheels, nope, nada, negative.....

The side skirts make it hard to use the Jack. They should have just replaced the entire skirt.

That was my point, real flares have more parts, these are for style only and missing very important parts to make them worth using.

Rocketbunny look, so many things wrong with that.

Style, yes, the pic you posted did does it much better but these are cars or were cars, why not make cars look like and still be viable at the same time instead of doing something goofy to get attention, create another follow me crowd market.....

I just do not get it, then maybe I do, I would love to see nearly all these cars on track against the same cars setup properly.

Oh, not track cars? They just seem to look like it but done wrong.

I am sure they can make a profit from those not willing to think for themselves.

OK, done ranting, I guess I am getting to old to get it, I will just keep making cars faster, funner, safer, the way I have for 47 years now:)

the lip and wing extension look good and all......but damn, at least give us reasonable pricing....you can get a CF hood for about the price of the CF wing extension, and almost 1k for a CF lip....really?

The lip looks great. The rest looks like a bunch of tacky add on ricer mods. Definitely not a fan. Even before the price point

There are already real wing options, none of the extensions do any good but some may hurt performance a bit.
I bet for that kind of money a knock of the the RS wing could be sold and it would do something, not a huge amount as not a big wing but still a gain.

Decent splitters for a huge amount less are available and with a bit of modding can make it a very effective one with undertray and work.

I think I have seen some better looking skirts, still did not look like real performance enhancing ones but sure better.

Flares, nothing done right yet unfortunately.

This is an incredibly well engineered little car, I just wish for it to be treated as such instead of a fadmobile for profit, damn the real performance enhancements.

I understand your point. However, not everyone is building a car for the track and even less will actually even see a track. Do I think Mountune wing extenstions make my car handle better? No. But I also DD my car and have no intention of even autocrossing, let alone getting track time. I just like the way they look. I feel as though your comments are a slap in the face to companies that do actually put time and money into parts for the ST crowd, whereas other companies won't even touch it.
