  1. whats your opinion on these?

  2. Opinion = low. Maybe in a flat TT they'd make sense if you don't have the budget for the real thing. But for 99% of us, we just aint going to go fast enough for the aero beneift to offset the weight addition, and, heck, they just look cheap and poser. I guess the analogy for me is someone spending 5 grand on a 15 grand car to add plastic spoilers, ground effects, that stuff... which only makes the cheap car slower... instead, take the 20 grand and buy a car that is actually fast, and doens't look all bling.
