I'm pleased to see this. Ricers and most of the people that make their livings ripping them off have too little respect for traffic norms and safety.

650,000 doesnt sound like enough. Think about how many people you see just in your area with these stupid things. 650k is a slap on the wrist.

But yeah, Ha Ha!

Someday: "Today the DOT confiscated thousands of so-called 'wings' because they were taller than the car they were attached to, looked stupid, and because they served no aerodynamic purpose other than slowing the car down. Other concerns included the center-of-gravity problems posed by these wings that results in a recent spree of roll-over events among Honda Civics nationwide."

Well, ciper, realize that they're also requiring APC to recall a bunch of their merchandise. That will cost them a bundle.

Unfortunately, many of the people who bought this crap will refuse to believe it's crap and will therefore not send it back.

Sigh.
