Its a flat carbon fiber panel you attach to the bottom of your car in the front. They're function is to increase downforce on the front end. This is more effective for our FWD cars than rear spoilers but still pretty pointless since you need to go really really fast for it to have any real significant effect. For most people its a show piece.

Splits wind and finds curbs :p

Nice looking part, though! The way it's mounted, it will probably work with any body kid, you just have to worry about ground clearance depending on where you live.

I agree on the ground clearance part. I never installed mine because I'm afraid of the height.

there not too expensive on ebay. i've seen them for right around $100. i think it also protects the bumper from if you have an after market one.

Or it will do the opposite and the support rods could tear holes into your bumper if it gets caught on something.
