Well hey if they were real deal canards, that might actually be pretty cool.
The stuff on the bumper appears to be more cosmetic.
However much downforce something that subtle creates is perhaps negligible at best, lol.

Now that it's mentioned, I think it'd be totally awesome if the GTR had some race inspired downforce kit.
Throw in a big canards & a GT wing.
It would totally work in terms of performance and aesthetics for that type of car.
Lot of the track guys would opt for that anyways via the aftermarket,
so might as well have Nissan capitalize off that.
