Just wondering if anyone has thought of running these (or something similar) on their Liberty?

On a tough ass Evo they look ok, but still not liked by many.

On a Lib, you would look like a complete knob IMO, doesn't suit the car in any way at all.

However if someone is game to prove me wrong, be my guest. :lol:

I think on a WRX or EVO they look the goods. On a Liberty, well, it would be somewhat out of place. But on a black sedan it might look alright. Particually if it got some other after market bits. :wink:

I'm thinking if they did that full STi-style WRC kit on the Liberty, that electric blue one... it might look ok.

Mmmmm, yes I agree. Full kit with the Vortex would be most good on the sedan.

I say just do it, and if it doesn't work out sell it or destroy it.

Almost every single WRX and GT Liberty I saw in Singapore had these on them. Don't forget to cover the rear parcel shelf with stuffed animals if you add these to totally rice it up!

In fact, I saw a bloke in a BMW 320i on the F3 the other day with them on is car and advertising a web site that claimed fitting vortex generators improved your fuel economy.

All I know about them is that when they were added to the Chieftan that I used to fly, it could carry more weight...
