Looks cool as hell and if you would not know any better it looks as if it came that way.

Mixed reviews, that's sort of how I feel. I looks cool, but a bit unbalanced. The sport classic tail has a bit more kick up to it, which would look cooler. Ultimately, I don't need the downforce in the winter and enjoy being able to see out of the back window for a few months.

I also noticed fewer Hondas and GT-Rs trying to race me

Bingo. This look here ain't no ducktail. If ducktail, it'd look absolutely complete, but that involves a lot more work given the different air ducting in the RS v. the SC. It looks unfinished the way it is now with those hard edges like you're missing something which it is.

Just my humble opinon.

Love it! I always felt it should have been an option for people who want a more subtle look.
