I'm going to predict what others have to say about this...


Mooneggs: LOL, sir, I have already ordered my weatherstripping from the UK!

Fowljesse: I made this out of plexi and it reduced my drag coefficient by X.XX%!

Matt: PM me, I'll get you discounts on these.

mx3autozam: Juan, you're dumb

Juans_93_mx3: Stop stalking me, mx3autozam

93blackmx3: DELETED

wytbishop: I admire the creativity, but I think it's disgusting.

Daninski: Back in the muscle car days...

Shameem: In the "rubber weatherstripping" manual, on p2-358, it has some useful information you should read beforehand.


What would SuperK say??!!

That's a toughy, you're very random. :P I'll take a swing at it though.

SuperK:IF my OEM lip shows up from Matt, It'll be a bajillion times better than one from The De-Pot of Home.

Hmmm... I thought it might be somewhere along the lines of...


I SWEAR THIS STUFF IS MADE OUT OF RHODODENDRONS!

And I will also have you know I spelled that right the FIRST time, with NO spell check.

Oh, man.
Actually, I'm making mine out of "Sintra". It's some sort of other Carbonate that I made my skirts from, and mine's going to extend from the bottom of the turn signals, and go almost straight down to the level of the bottom of the lip spoiler, and it will flare a little bit just before the front tires. The grill will be smaller, too, and have a fine mesh on it.

I think it'll reduce drag about .2 Cd.

Long live Rhodys!

By the way.. If it seems no one is taking this very seriously.. It was posted before. Still a good idea, though.
I have put about $500 worth of home depot stuff on various cars, saving about $2,000, for almost the same stuff, but made for cars.

Do I need to log on or something to get into that site. I have no account there. Besides I don't need no lip from anyone. Muscle car days,,,, I'll have you know I painted my interior black and put red trucker lights under my dash way back then so when it comes to Ricing up the interior those Jap b*st*rds got nothin on me. Everything I just said I meant in a nice way. :D
