This is the equivalent to swapping a GTR nose on a Stagea, correct?

Not belittling, I absolutely love this. In fact, I want to see this next to the Stagea.


Edit

Nevermind this was actually a wagon! Holy crap! Why haven't I ever heard of it before?! :eek:


Edit 2

Those holes bring about another question. What are they for in Civics? I see a lot of modified Civics with a huge bar underneath and then holes at the bumpers. Of course RICErs decide to take it and run off it with the idea but Im genuinely curious.

In almost all cars the rear bumper is essentially a parachute where wind is trapped at speed. The holes alleviate that air.

I'd love to see some CFD which proves that it actually works. As it is I'm skeptical that you get any benefit beyond minor weight savings.
