The placement of the fins on that red hatch look better than the other pics but still not approvable. I saw a Scion in my area with them on it and i had to double take to realize wtf i just saw followed by a facepalm.

You guys should talk to the guys at http://rexpeed.net. They make a lot of unique carbon parts for the Evo community. They make one of the best fitting (OEM-like) vortex generators out there.
Talk to them, maybe they can design one for the 240 roof as it never hurts to ask.

i dont find it too attractive. its just something that isnt for the s13.. now maybe the top winglet on the wrx sti's would be nice right over the hatch window might look ok.

I could be way out in left field on this one but those things look a hell of a lot like the fake bmw "shark fin" antennas you can buy and almost any autoparts store?

I think y'all don't like it because it's not been tastefully done yet... the ones on the red car are too big, and there's too many on the silver car. I'd like to see them on a coupe as well. Lets see someone with a real proper-looking set up, yes?

Ideas and opinions are always welcome.
Evidently not.
And please don't be a jerk and say shit like why do you want to put an evo roof fin on a 240 and shit like that.
This thread has no purpose. It will do nothing but continue to be an argument between who like them, and those who know better.
Therefore, I am ending it now.
You want to add vortex generators to your car, go for it. At least learn what they are and what they do first though.
"Evo roof fin thingies" isn't really a technical definition.
AND
"It looks cool" isn't really a technical requirement.
This is over now. :lockd:
