Unless you have access to Toyota's data or a wind tunnel then you can only assume

what the airflow does around the car.

 

Or you could do what the F1 boys do when there testing new aero parts at the track

and get some aero paint :)

I doubt Do Luck or any other iffy "styling" company give a twopenny damn about what they do to the aerodynamics of the car, so long as they achieve a comic book look and sell some ill fitting fibreglass ;)

 

 

Toyota on the other hand are after maximum MPG, which means as little drag as possible, as little high speed lift as possible, and a fit and durability that won't see them sued for big bits falling off their cars on the motorway, or for offending good taste in the western world (what little there is left...) ;)

So Chris your saying Do Luck are an 'iffy' company? Bet Jamsey wont be best pleased then :taped: None of the Japanese stuff (Vileside excepted :eyebrows:) is that bad surely? True the many copies are cr*p though

Or they dont know the exports had the cooler. And decided it looked better. So had nothing to loose appart from a bit of aero.

so we can assume that the diff cooler was only on UK and European versions as Do Luck USA even blended the skirts on that show car and we know that the yanks only got turbo versions :eyebrows:
