the fins are too fat and not long enough for that speed look.
and its on the glass...i guess i can try to use CAD to find find the best looking shape and try to make on from carbon fiber...once i get enough money and time...
lol i just noticed the a small spoiler on the bottom.
i think it would be better if it stretched all the way to the top of the glass.

dude. It's a show car. I would not rock anything other than making my car look like a car.

lol.
i think theres a couple tc's that can pull the roof diffuser off.
i dont think theres anything in the world that can pull those fins off.
you could turn that thing upside down , put a boat motor on it and sail the seven seas.

well that and that real-life "replica" of the CG'd car in that particular commercial.
DOES NOT and is not the same design whatsoever.
they got the color.. sure.. they got the graphics.. sure... fins? okay..
but body kit? hell no.. the one in the commercial wasn't the Rado kit... and the entire car was slimmed out and had a completely different aerodynamic shape that fit better with its fins... along with the taillights too..
but it was still all CG.. it looks great there.. but in real life? umm.... gonna take a lot more money and effort than that monstrosity that they tried (and i do stress the word "tried") to put together.
and did you not read the fine print? stuff about these cars possibly modified with non geniune scion parts or something? i'm sure a few commercials have them.. or something.. somewhere.
so... yeah.. it makes sense Scion doesn't sell them.

I saw it last year on a flatbad when it came through headquarters. Looked sweet in person with that widebody but the shark fins, i'm not convinced.
