The wings does help to keep the car down for grip but not necessary so big. Opposite application of a plane wings, small plane takes off at 200++ kmph anyway.

Well 200kmph and 280kmph is not scary when you got a nice setup car. Very stable. Big pipes is for good output, is best for straightest and shortest path out. Race car has their pipes at the side of the car.

However, unlike most wannabe on our roads is only pure looks and sound no performance...

Wings are not really necessary for most cars as they are usually not fast enough to take advantage of downforce, and they are merely there to increase drag.

If you have a car capable of 200bhp+, then yes it would make some sense. But it's illegal to go beyond the speed wings can take advantage...

LOL, not even close to be a ricer. I guess it's a cheap way to own a turbo car...
