Dear Civicx Members
I spent a lot of time considering to cut this huge ugly horrible disgusting black fake rear vents. I spent time reading a lot of topics about it on this forum and these are the main ones:
https://www.civicx.com/threads/cutting-opening-up-existing-fake-vents-on-front-bumper.27081/page-5
https://www.civicx.com/threads/diy-rear-bumper-fake-vent-conversion.14370/page-19
https://www.civicx.com/threads/poss...ng-mustaches-with-the-17-hatches.42357/page-3
Not only the look is far to be beautiful, there is a huge amount of dust trapped all the time on the rear bottom part of the rear bumper.
BUT...there is always must to be a "but"...
When I read all these topics I thought that Honda missed this point and there is no reason to not cut these vents...and then the 2020 generation came out with same but a little deeper vents...fake again.
Now my main question is - wont I make any damage to aerodynamics or other characteristic of my car by doing this small change? In the end, I am far to be as smart as a division of Honda engineers, so maybe they got a point? Or on other hand maybe its just some "safety" thing that they cant go over and cut them already on the factory.
Hope to hear you opinion (and sorry for my english)
Sincerely
Prozento
