Sweet pics!





Ok, anyone know what the things on the bottom of those 2 car's front bumpers are called? I thought they were called splitters. I've been wanting one for my car FOREVER now and can't find one anywhere.

they are diffusors/splitters and APRracing makes one for the GK tiburon that should fit nicely for us.

splitters or cannards are small versions of these that mount to the sides of the front bumper

Yeah I'm really digging that GK. Only thing i would change on the front end is I would do something with the headlights, maybe paint the inner bezels or tint them. Otherwise its hot.

i mentioned that to him and he said that he feels like the car needs the diffrent shades. if it were gloss it would all blend together and lose the look.

i have the same feeling on under the hood stuff, you need the diffrent shades of black under your hood to show the cleanliness of it. because there are SUPPOSED to be diffrent tones and textures there. i guess he has the same outlook on the exteriot

You could always make one! There's a few diy floating around on the internet if you google it.

That black tiburon is awesome.
