APR Canard Question

I just got mine in and both the top and bottom canards are exactly the same size. Is this correct for the evo? I downloaded the template for install and it looks like I should have two different sizes. Any feed back would be great.
Thanks,
MIke

I'm almost certain all four are the same size. They are pictured as two different sizes on some sites, but the ones for the Evo are all the same size.

hm, that's odd. You would think that the bottom one would be larger. Also, if anyone has some experience with placement, I would appreciate it. They don't include angle direction or anything to help you install. I don't want them to just be good looking, I want them to be functional and provide ample down force for track driving. Thanks.

as stated, all four are the same size. I recently had mine installed when my car was in the shop for a couple other things at CBRD. I'll be honest, I purchased them on looks alone to be frank. I like how they make the front end look so I basically let Mark put them where he thought they should go. Will the angle that he put them at make any more downforce than another? Not sure haha. Sorry I'm probably not helping at all with this lol
I'm sure someone with a bit more knowledge of downforce will chime in.

really, they are supposed to help with downforce. I say false advertising if this really isn't the case. Thanks for the help. About what angle did you install them at and how high up front the ground and how far back from the front of the car. Thanks

Goldfinger, you may be better to answer those questions above then CBRD. If you could do some measurements, that would be super.
