:cosmetic. Functional in what sense? There are reputable aftermarket tuners out there who do make products for the Z. Companies such as NISMO, HKS, TRUST (GReddy), and Apex'i make functional products for the Z, just like Mugen, Spoon, and AEM for the Civic. And equally, these tuners aren't going to make rice products, or products that replace something that is already performance oriented. It just so happens that the Civic (and its competitors) aren't exactly performance cars to start with, so more of its components need to be upgraded. That gives us Z owners the illusion that more products are available for these "rice cars". That brings me back to my original reply "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" ideology.And cosmetic in what sense? The Z32 design was designed using Cray computers, both mechanicals and aerodynamics. I read somewhere that the Z32's nose was shaped like such, to aerodynamically withstand crosswinds up to 70mph. Anything else that the owner wants to add is up to him/her, and is mainly for looks. In many cases, it takes away from the aerodynamic functionality of the car. There are products out there; it's just that most of the die-hard people (here) think they are rice.
