Thinikng of gettin a Vortex Creator...

[BAD63R]

I've been looking into these little gismos and the various forms they come in such as a simple shark fin style roof spoiler to huge fins built into a boot spoiler.

I managed to find a demo video of them trying these things out in a wind tunnel and bloody they do work really, really well. The spoilers obviously create more of a Vortex but can resault in loosing power due to drag. So instead I looked into the roof spoiler ones and was very impressed.

The ones I have been looking at are as follows and as I've decided to start replacing pannels with real carbon fibre, I might invest in a Carbon Vortex roof spoiler. But would like your oppinions please as these seem to be a good investment to stop people gaining on you if they are sitting in your boot lol

This is a shot of the exact one I would have in Carbon:-

What do you reckon then peeps?

Not sure to be honest, not my sort of thing unless like you say, makes a huge difference. My only concern would be how long before it gets seen on barryboys as fitted to all chavmobiles.

I know imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but if done badly it justs ruins the original, just look how Burberry suffered.

I have seen these on the EVO and it looks a bit odd. Each to their own I say!

I actually quite like then but on the right car. A 1.0 shopper would just look wrong. If Rallyart are fitting them as standard then there must be a reason. It might even help a bit with fuel economy

I like them......But only on an Evo. I don't think they suit any other car.

The reason might well be that rallyart is being paid to fit them so that we go out and buy 'em.

You could be right there HDi.
