everyone look at this picture of a corvette.
 see how underneath the front bumper there is a black plastic piece that extends towards the ground. Does it help with aerodynamics and what not? would it be benificial to add one to our celicas? This post has been edited by Hanyo: Dec 4, 2007 - 7:10 PM |

The front lip on the vette looks like it limits the airflow under the car. If air doesn't get under the car, a pocket of low pressure is created which sucks the car towards the ground. Low pressure=downforce
 Having a low front end that directs airflow around the car would help the celica with downforce. not sure how to link but this explains basic car aerodynamics. http://www.hotrod.com/techarticles/body/hd...tips/index.html |
