      • I wonder how well a cavalier ls sport wing would fit on it? Just a thought. I picked up one from a junkyard a little bit ago so maybe you could have some luck.

              or maybe something like this.......Nascar type spoiler feel like I would need wider wheels though....

              Thanks man I appreciate the link! I'm thinking something very similar to the stance nation one but smaller, less noticeable.

              Not sure how it would work, haven't found one in a yard yet but I think I know which wing your taking about. I'll have to try mocking one up.

              Thanks friend! Haha I'm still on the fence about it.

              Sooo drove this thing all the way to Victoria and back without busting anything
              Too too badly. While I was there I managed to pick up a rear lip/valence for some sort of neon or cavalier, forgot to make a note of what it was off of.

              Looked to be about the right size, only problem being the exhaust exit was on the wrong side. Also the corners of the valence didn't curve sharp enough.

              So I hacked it into 5 peices and started plastic welding


              Also moved the beveled edges to where my exhaust was for a nicer looking opening.

              Once that was done I slapped on some body filler.



              Sadly the blue isn't an exact match. I plan on painting it to match the black plastic side skirts and front lip.

                  You have no idea how bad I want one of those rear lips :O It's off of a cavalier ls either 2000-2003. It probably had the duck bill spoiler I mentioned. This is what it looks like.

                      • finally maxed out my front coils

                        which leaves the subframe sitting at only 3/4" off the ground...

                        and that ugly poo in the left corner there is cv joint grease. managed to blow up a boot but its fixed now.

                        now the car tucks some tire


                        i'll get some better pics once we get nicer weather and after i get the back lip mounted

                            • Freaking fricking frick. This looks so good with the new height. And that rear lip is slick too.

                              And obviously the Nardi is badangles. Keep up the sexy work.
