Rear wing and Front Splitter?
Should I add a rear wing and front splitter to my car to give me added traction at high speeds?

Hey Colt its been a while,but on the subject I'd say stay away from the wing, as for the splitters, they might look good, or they might not fit your cars set up being that it'll just look like your adding too much. Photochop it, see if you like the way it looks first
