    Aftermarket mini-blades for R8 Spyder?

    I really miss the blades on the R8 spyder. Does anyone know if someone is coming out with some carbon fiber mini-blades to fit towards the back of the spyder's air intakes? I think it might bring back a little of the original R8 feel to the car.

    I really don't see where you could put them without replacing several entire body panels at the rear to accommodate the blades.

    Aesthetically it won't work as there's no natural horizontal break line to work with.
