Question Carbon Fiber Canards???

Has anyone thought about or have carbon fiber canards on their z? I was looking at the auto salon top secret z and it has some, but i think something like the c-west cf canards for the R34 GTR could look good. Can anybody photochop some nice canards on a z so i could get a idea of what it might look like?

I'm not understanding the context in which you use the word 'canard' Could you please elaborate on what you're talking about? Is this maybe one of those front mounted mini-wings?

Just for future reference... I believe those are called splitters or winglets.
