    As to yung no plates, andami niyan kahit dito sa NCR. Bunga yan nung na-backlog sa LTO dati kaya ngayon kaya wala nang naninita... alam ng LTO na people will point back at the LTO and say "Kayo kasi, palpak eh" Kaya kanya kanyang diskarte sa "plate".

    Ang problem nga lang diyan, inaabuso na ngayon yan tuloy. Yung mga gumagawa ng kalokohan (ex. naka hit & run) and mayayabang, di tuloy basta basta nasisita kasi mahirap na ma trace. Ang higpit nila sa mga motor (checkpoint) dahil malimit gawin sa mali, dapat sa mga imbentong plate na walang conduction sticker ganun din.
    Wala na kinalaman ang plate backlog dyan. 1992 model pa yan ng civic. 20+ years ago pa yan nabigyan ng plaka.

    Dapat dyan hinuhuli at impound no excuses.

    it's a status symbol of sorts... because we allow it to.
    but it can easily be converted into a kiss of death, if only the authorities decide to.

    But this advantage works mostly for “10-second” race cars. These are cars which go over 200kph in the quarter mile. For “10-second” street cars—10 seconds just to get to 100kph— such modifications don’t do much. Still, once the ‘cool’ people started doing it, it became a case of “monkey see, monkey do.”
    Niky made an article regarding this pala. Hehe

    That article answered my question...

    Another question, however, is that why the said guy, Niky, is no longer active here in this forum.

    I think I stumbled on his post but I can't recall where.

    Well, at least it's better than those huge "wing" type spoilers being mounted on some hatchbacks like Eons and Wigos that look really ricey.

    What those bozos don't realize is that too much rearward downforce actually impairs handling since the rear tires will be too "grippy", countering steering input from the front wheels. That is, assuming the spoilers actually "work" since those cars usually can't get over 140kph anyway

    As to the Black Honda, maybe the downward angle might (repeat, might) help with the rear turbulence common to hatchbacks, but without wind tunnel testing who knows?

    If you have one, why not give it’s try?
