What is the point of this???
 

A dumb a$$ Honda cut me off today he had the back bumper cut with holes and I wondering what was the point of that it seems kinda useless to me it's just seems like another lame trend Honda guy made up to make there car go fast.. Any ways it kinda look like this

trapped airflow equals drag.

honda guys been doing that since the 90's.

on a street car? no point. just rice points.
on an actual drag car it allows trapped air to flow through the rear bumper.

why not just run no bumper

Or just run no rear bumper and problem solved.

It's for his rear mount turbo. Creates suction from rear and generates a nice vortex to help it give more OOMPH!

It was a white EG i bet huh! I've seen it a couple of times on the 101 cutting people ahahaha

i wonder if other honda people see that and go "ahhh fuck he's serious!" ? lol

My buddy added 2 mph to his trap speed by doing this. I know it doesn't make since to us but it is functional on their cars.

I dont see the point of it. Shit i rather make a under panel if thats the case but 99.9% of people who do this are dumbass ricers

People have to get places REAL quick in SoCal!

Lol Hondas drivers are the same everywhere it would seem.

Agreed. Here in PA theres so much rice and hondas that do that. And they arent even clean hondas around here, only a select few are actually clean..

Or they can just run no rear bumper and problem solved

Better gas mileage. A rear bumper really is a drag-chute on modern cars.

full undercarriage diffuser. ULTIMATE GAS SAVINGS!

have you seen what 240sx owners do to their cars? we keep the glitter vinyl companies in business.
in 2011, 240sx owners are worse people than Honda owners. prove me wrong.

The truth will set you free...

So glitter is not so bad:hey: I see a lot honda guy put fake carbon fiber vent holes on there ride

each hole is a victory mark for each race they won. the more holes the more badass of a racer. also tends to help with reducing weight.

i have about 17 holes drilled on my swingarm on my bike. its uneven at the moment and need to win one more race so the weight can be 50/50 on both sides of the bike



wanna racE?

Lol is this guy serious^^^^

these things are real parachutes

not this car in particular , but the whole bn/gp style rear bumpers =p

are you seriously thinking about racing me?!

nahh dood i was just really bored at work and decided to go along kinda with the hole things lol

on the real note theres a bunch of hondas out here were i live and they all have a ton of holes cut in their bumpers and i rememeber when i had my s13 i asked what it was for out of curiousity and he told me weight reduction.

definitely that shit is creating huge drag.:rofl:


its the reason why gtr has this warning.

the molded-in raingutter bodykit style has never really appealed to me.

Yeah?



Samezies.

It is functional. But I would never do it to a street car, especially a daily. Fuck that.


This. But you have to take into consideration that Honda guys lack the ability to think for themselves. Therefore they jump on whatever bandwagon is popular at the time. Since lately S-Chassis and drifting have been more popular, they switched to 240s. In turn, the majority of these ugly as AIDs, complete abomination "drift" cars have been due to Honda guys.

I give it 3-5 years before they swap back to Honda, and then you will start seeing unifinished, riced out 240s driven by old people and 16 year olds, cuz they drew the short end of the stick.



I hate them. Ugly as sin and completely mess up the flow of the body
