kamei

i got mine brand spanking new it is sweet but it has developed a smell crack from when i hung it wrong i am thinking of getting a jsports bumper which would be a nice place to mount an oil cooler and fan up front and will hide the neon a bit better then the kamei and i presume it will be a bit more seure. does anyone know if they can be moulded onto the front a the car. i would like to blend it into the metal work somehow.

Yes. I bought a brand new one a few years ago.
Got a nice carbon fibre one from elsewhere now

A friend of mine and I are going to start on a form for a C/F air damn with an oil cooler box in the center much like the 70's RSR 911. Once it is done I think he(my friend) will make some to sell. He worked for a few years with C/F in Delta's Airlines composite shop. This might take a little while as we will have to build a low pressure autoclathe. He wants to do some C/F work as a small buiseness.

About the air damn

Can that thing be monted without the bumpers? I hate bumper.
Please let me know..I think I saw one on the Luftboxer site, but I wasn't sure if he ran like that or if they had just removed the bumper.

The type like I have mount to the bumper, it would look daft without!
What you may want to consider doing is extending the wings/front downwards like Russ Fellows bug.

Mad Front

What you could do is get the front bumper off a modern car as in an aftermarket abs bumper slice it in the middle to fit and trim it at the top and mould it into the wings and front valance.
there is a super that someone has done this with the front of a Honda Integra in the caymans. it is in one of this years volksworld magazines and looks pretty good but i am sure it could be done with any bumper if you want to spend time on it.
