Where’s the Aero?

How is that even possible? This is supposedly coming straight from the JDM gods. Obviously, you just have to buy it and wildly overpay, because guess what it comes from Japan! How you dare to say that it looks like the one from China!

Well, kinda true.

The two differences "I seem to think that" I see are that:

1). The J's Racing lip looks to be carbon fiber vs plastic, and

2). The J's Racing lip looks to be one piece vs three piece.

Of course, I'm seeing this from inside my Holodeck, sooo...

I hate to say it but it looks like that infamous 70 dollar Amazon lip.

I have that front lip and I don’t think they look alike. Maybe just the winglet on the side, but that’s about it.

The concept is basically the same, and in the end, it’ll be held in place by self-tapping screws! I have the Amazon one on my car, and honestly, I can’t complain I drive it every day. The expensive version looks great, and for the people willing to spend a ton of money and wait forever to get their parts, more power to them!

But I just can’t see myself paying $800 or more for something I could easily damage on the highway, whether from someone backing into my car or hitting a hidden dip in the road. Destroying an $800 part like that isn’t worth it to me. I think it’s cool for people who only use their cars occasionally, but for daily drivers, it just doesn’t seem practical. That’s just my opinion, though we live in the U.S., and everyone can spend their money however they want!

I have it too ! I even add one of those Ez-lip or whatever to not scratch it a lot!

Close up of the EZ lip please!

Different mirror option. Sort of resembles the HKS mirror on their race car. Side note: the HKS car is actually using a stock mirror and base from the Honda S660

More aero for you guys, Anointerd Aero has began prototyping of a new FL5 front lip. This one seems to be one of the more OEM+ looking options. I'm also grateful it avoids looking like a different version of the Aimgain front lip.

Spoke with Spaulding of Anointed Aero and he's working to get it to market within 3-6 months. Lets hope it undercuts all the $800+ front lips on the market.

J's Racing recently sold one of their new GT wings for the OEM FL5 wing mounts to a new client at Honda All Type R World Meeting 2026 at Motegi.

It's great to have more options for the OEM wing mounts, which means it'll also fit on the PRL and Cusco high rise wing mounts as well. I actually think this spoil;er would go great with the Cusco risers.

This one looks good where is this company from? It will be on the 1k like the other ones! But look good as long they just don’t offer it on carbon fiber.

I would kill for a normal purchaseable version of the arta kit

Every part of the kit is

Doesn't have the goofy built in canards like spoon, actually maintains somewhat of a curve in the wing, and those front and rear fenders look amazing. I'm even okay with the rears being separate panels since it's done so well
