Shark Fins
Two fins would look best. However, they are very heavy when compared to the fins next to the exhaust tips. This example would look better.

With those larger than mine.. I'd go the two and as suggested grind them to where you can move them closer together instead of the one "rolling" slightly to the side.

No and no.

I ordered 3 sets of 3 for $5 a set from China last Monday.
( figured if they look OK, I'll have another set for some other worthy soul )
When mine get off the boat I'll have a look see and post up some pictures.

I'll have you know I walked 25 miles in the snow both ways when I was in school.
You young wippersnappers .......

Greg: What are those that you have? Where did you purchase? Since seeing yours compared to the ones I have, I think I like your set up...Carl

Re: What did you do to your Crossfire today?
Problem around O'town is all of the Great American Land Barges (GALBs) whose drivers look over and just did not see my Fiero (the car you wear) in the next lane over because their window sill was above my roof line. Needed the air horns. Suspect Miatta is the same.
XF is just tall enough to be visible for most so haven't had as much trouble.
BTW I suspect that all the spoiler does at 60-70mph is to cost 1 or 2 mpg and block some rear vision. Is it functional at that low a speed ?
Went to the beach yesterday, about 90 minutes each way so had time to reflect.

You know, I always wondered the same! I pretty much believed the spoiler is a gimmick to make the car look "cool" or more sporty. I find it hard to believe a little "pop" out spoiler does much of anything...Why did the Mercedes SLK not have a spoiler then?

I didn't do much today but, I did redo my self made slasher stripes. They now line up better with door seams.
You are right indelibility about comparing the Crossfire to the Miata, I notice it every time my brothers Mazdaspeed is parked next to mine. The second gen Miata is even smaller than the third.
