^My 2000 NB modeling the touge run spoiler, wondering how a vortex generator would look on the hardtop?

Anybody have a vortex generator on their hardtop or trunk lid? Just wondering because the ricer in me has been thinking about doing this for a while now. I think it can look good/different. As you can see there is a Miata up there with one, but I was thinking of something more along the style of what is factory on the EVOs.

Don't do it, there's other stuff you can spend your money on that would be much more worthwhile. Buy yourself some canards.

I would pass on it as well. To me it just doesn't flow well with the car. But if your set on doing it then I'd do it on the hardtop since you already have a spoiler on.

Thanks for the input guys, decided not to do it. I slept on it and decided that I would end up regretting it...now if I had an EVO (non MR model) or a WRX no question I would throw one one. I think I might look into a hardtop visor.

It was "Cool Cat Racing" (hence CCR MX5) but then he sold it to "NickT93" both live in Georgia but the car is no longer.
