Just came in the mail today. I was hoping to get them earlier but they shipped them to the wrong address. It's raining right now so I won't be able to put them on till it's dry.. if that ever happens.. rains so much in Oregon.

Will post pictures after the install

You ever put these on? Any noticeable results?

To be honest, I can't really see those things doing anything for the car

I have them on my car... I like the way they look - my little cousin calls it my super hero car. I don't think they do too much except grab peoples' attention

It says that they are supposed to improve your gas mileage. I haven't noticed any results, nor have I tested it for any. I'm sure it probably does help, but not enough for you to notice. Maybe like 1 extra mile per gallon or something. But anyways here they are installed..

I thought I posted pictures of it but I guess not. There will be a write up posted on NVT when it's released.

Well, I know on airplanes they lower stall speed and give improved control.

As for cars? I'd think they would've put them on there if they would've helped? They look kinda nifty though.

Well I found out how to NOT put these bastards on.

Words can't describe how pissed I am lol. Apparently you need to go to a body shop to get them taken off. If you buy these make sure if you do the 0-5-10-15-15 15-15-10-5-0 degree design to change the directions. :tisk:
