Where’s the Aero?

[cvkaru]

Here's an FL5 that got lost in the TAS 2026 sauce. The Kansai Service FL5, aero kit includes front lip, side skirts, front canards and rear under spoiler.

Here's a link to their website: https://www.kansaisv.co.jp/demo_car/public_stock_detail.php?entry=0035.dat&model=democar_1

I was looking into this a little bit, is this just the Aero Tech Japan kit?

New front bumper concept from Result Japan, good to see another bumper option coming to the market

Looks functional, but very ugly. It's like they made the air channels in CAD, then took a cross section and said "just paint it black"

Second image looks better tho

Elantra N vibes and I know the hate they have towards the type r’s and I think some people think is reciprocal . I like the Elantra especially the TCR could own it but I have type r now.

I saw a comment a while back that summed up the one sided rivalry really well: "When you buy an Elantra N, people ask you why you didn't buy a type R. When you buy a type R, no one asks why you didn't buy an Elantra N".

Elantra N's are great cars, but the low barrier of entry means the average driver of them also shares that low barrier if you catch my drift

Well said. There tends to be a lot of cope on the EN side which tends to evolve into hate. It is a good value for what it is. Though I do think the EN is rather ugly. As far as they have come as a brand, Hyundai is not equal to Honda. I have had a few daily Hyundais so this is coming from my experiences with the brand. Let's face it, nobody driving an EN wouldn't have rather had a Type R.

But yea, that bumper is fugly. Looks like a Kia EV.

I actually don't mind the looks, trhe 2nd pic with the painted center section makes it look a lot better to me. TBH I'm waiting for someone to make a bumper that neatly integrates OEM foglights.

Garage Vary recently posted their color-matched polyurethane front lip. This design is completely different from their carbon Glide front lip
