...anything aftermarket that attaches with double sided tape and is not functional will definately be import looking.
Do it right or don't do it at all...then again...it is your car and glue on ducts will look great on your car.

I like the look, and they're functional....eh, why not? Maybe go with an aftermarket duct instead. Someone posted some great pictures of theirs and they looked better than OEM.

Certainly not rice, but I wouldn't do it unless they were functional.
To me, there is no big deal doing stuff like this. People used to put SS badges on Camaros and Novas all the time to clone them. As long as you have full disclosure if you sell the car, have a ball.

If you like them, do it. Just make them functional. I like them on my coupe.
