Lexus LFA tuned by Artisan Spirits

Kind of disappointing

Seriously, what's difference between this one and bone stock?

Bone stock is better than the typical body kits you post

Lexus's team of top engineers worked 10+ years with almost unlimited budget to produce the LFA. What makes some random 2 guys in a garage say they can "tune" this car better than what Lexus could do?

Which probably makes it less aerodynamic and therefore slower. I mean c'mon, it's a fucking LFA.

it doesn't matter if it's an LFA or Enzo.

in fact, Gemballa made a widebody kit for Enzo

Does it do anything other than add drag? The LFA and Enzo are two of the most heavily engineered cars ever made

I don't think those parts make any appreciable difference. If anything it seems like the rear diffuser looks more like a CF replacement part over say a stock part.

the rear diffuser is stock, they did 'replace' anything.
they added that rear under panel on the side.

here's the stock
