OK,
Looks like enough interest to put these back in production. They will be $115 + shipping. This is the airdam only. I am re-valuating the rubber for these also. Before there just wasn't enough demand to produce it. But, if I can get 25 firm orders at $49 for the rubber only. I will make it. After the GB I would sell at $65, as these are a heavy rubber part The airdams can be produced in a few weeks easily, but the rubber will require me to make a die and run it which is usually a 6-8 week process, so I will have one before the other, if there is enough interest. The rubber will be retrofittable to the old dams, so if you have one (and I know there were a few out there) and need the rubber, you can buy just the rubber So if you are interested post here what you want. thx Attched are pictures of one on my old car. BTW- don't you love it when the new owner loves to taunt you by sending pictures like this. Attached image(s) |

The one that I have tooled up for is this one. We didn't add any cooling ducts, or make larger edges for flairs, however they can be modifed as some of my customers have done. The problem with setting up for flairs is that there are 2 differnt manufacturers of the steel, and also fiberglass ones. I don't have a way to assure the fit, so I made the tooling with a netural blended edge. It can be modified. It's just a matter of cost, and I'm trying to keep the cost down.

OK so it is no longer like the one on the my old silver car with the blocked edge! It now has the smoother ends?? |

The blocked edges could be done with some retooling but would add significantly to the cost. I'm trying to keep the costs down on these as much as I can. As well as keep confusion down. BTW I was able to reduce the cost to $115. |
