My (hopefully) original idea 140-160 68

posted by  someone claiming to be Andrew C on  Sat Jul 14 14:15 CST 2001 [RELATED]

If anyone with a 140 wants a front airdam on their car, I came up with a good solution that doesn't cost much! I went to the local Pick-a-Part to look for a 240 airdam since ipd no longer lists one for the 140's. Well, there weren't any 240's with one left, but there was a 740. It looked pretty easy to bolt up to the bottom of my bumper, so I paid $10 and took it home. All I had to do to get it to fit correctly was cut off the two corner mounting holes on both sides, and trim off a bit of material on either end, to make it fit flush with the bottom of the bumper, and drill six holes. The width is perfect and looks quite good on the car. Now I just have to do a bit of finish work where I cut the airdam, get a tow hook cover, and paint it. It's silver on my white car, so it doesn't stand out to badly right now. If anyone is interested, I could try to get a couple pictures up. Has anyone tried something this before??
