Nix - it would not look high performance at all, because high performance tends to "look" aero, without actually being aero. Well, not in the sense that we're bringing to light here, anyway. Performance cars take an aggro look and turn it into an upside-down airplane wing, to create downforce, which isn't necessary. Most of those cars, smooth as they are, are anything excluding aerodynamically slippery.

Now, that said, it would be pretty neat if someone could make basjoos' car look more cleanly refined and built, as though it were supposed to be that way from the OEM, and actually retain the aerodynamically slippery profile that he's created, still making it look like a sportier model of itself.
