Love them or hate them. What you think about them??

It completes the look when view from side but I can't stand looking at them from the back. It just ruins the rear bar for some reasons.

Do you think it's ok to run aero front and side skirts without the rear pods? I intend to put the wing back in as well. Rear pods go hand in hand with the rear wing?

Confused now!! grrrr

Are we talking the rear bumper protectors? I originally just had Aero side skirts and spoiler. Looks much better with them IMO. Even better with the front bumper too :D

I always thought they were called 'rear quarters'?

Anyhoo - I like mine. Prefer them to deep rear bumpers which I think are a bit OTT although Vertex and a few other kits look good.

This is what i mean

YAY!



nay



It's something like the rear wing. From the front/side, it looks gorgeous, but when you look from the back and that triangle brake light just ruins it. same with the rear pods. That's what I feel though. :p

Decision is made, I'll go without the rear pods! :)

I pity those S15's without rear pods.

It is part of the aero kit - put it on if you can get them. Easy!

I love them, esp from the back.. hate looking at S15's without rear pods!

I kinda agree with Ichi-go.
rear spats looks good from the side but not from the rear. Well it looks better than no spats, but there is other rear bars that looks better. But the aero one goes well with the other aero bits so for aero S15s I would still go with the aero spats.

The rear wing looks good. It would look better if that middle leg with the brake light in it wasn't there though. Kinda like the Kouki 180SX wing. That's a good wing :D

^^ I think we have the same taste. When mine is done, I'll post it up. I got a spare boot and wing that I will chop off the rear light. :)

would you consider selling the rear pods if you don't want them then? :)
