[WiseYoda]

[funkyfreshmonke]

what the heck does it do? lol

 

[M3-GT]

looks like a big cheese slicer :lol:

Thst's a picture of some type of air dam for the hood from the Japanese Mazda website. I don't think it's for sale in North America for the moment.

I'm with funkyfresh on this one. What the hell is the purpose, or is it basically cosmetic. I can't see that changing the air flow much, I could see it actually ruining the air circulation to the intake cowl.

In that case, I would imagine you'd be seeing these all over the place...

My first thought...

Which directly relates to...

 

[velocity3]

on the yellow it does look like a spoiler for the hatch put on the hood but that blue one that vaboom put on isnt all that bad if that was the only cosmetic mod they had. In my opinion i dont think its all that bad, but to everyone their own....

 

[TellyDSP]

Those two pictures are two different accessories.

Thank you Sir! It screams it! This is worse than any Type-R Geo Metros you might have seen

 

[Kazbaeden]

Type-R Geo Metro? What's that mean? Type Retarded, because I think I can race this lawnmower of a car?

If this component actually increases downforce in the front of the car, then it might actually do something beneficial for the Mazda 3 since it's FWD (more traction to the front tires)

Otherwise, it does kind of scream to the world "I am RICE!"

 

[shaund]

lol.. it looks rice. yes. but. the only other car ive seen it on is the Toyota Celica Sportivo.. just wanted to see it on a full pic thats all.

Vinyls are rice. 'full of puffy goodness'

This is for asthetics only. There is no way that this little wing, placed at virtually the center of the car, will increase downforce specifically over the front axle. Anyone who claims otherwise is more than welcomed to show me legitimate wind tunnel tests backing their claims.

I see a lot of these on Celicas I think. In any case. its just another acessory to put on your car to make it look fast....like those roof air scoops I've seen on MR2's...but oh well, if you think it looks good go ahead and waste your money, but true car people know it don't do ish.
