Six_Shooter Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 (edited) I've been trying to find out more information on this air dam, who made it, if it's still available, even if somebody is looking to sell one. So far I've come up empty on many different avenues of searching. Alternatively, maybe borrow one to make a mold from... Anyway it's this air dam here: The screen cap is from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=LEyhyt-h6Qo Another picture of the car: Here are some pictures of the same type of air dam on a car at our recent (August) local Zfest: I am getting the same story from everybody that I have talked to that has this on their car: "It came with the car and I have no idea who made it" So someone out there has to know where this air dam came from, and hopefully where to get one from.

Leon Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 (edited) Holy crap! I've never seen another like the one I have, until now. It came with the car and I have no idea who made it... Mine has a crack and a chip, but since I have no idea where to get one, I'm running with it. I'll ask to PO, but I'm betting he's got a similar story. Sorry for the crappy pics, I don't have a whole lot of them. Second photo is not mine, but I do not know who to credit...

Six_Shooter Posted October 6, 2013 Author Share Posted October 6, 2013 Well, if you ever want to sell it, let me know... lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PLATA Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 FWIW, there was one on Ebay a few months ago, the seller indicated that it will fit a 240Z, an MG and a VW Beetle. NO idea that they have the same chin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NO idea that they have the same chin LOL! Who'd've thought that? If I knew who made it or what search words to use I'd keep my eye on Ebay, and maybe even make an account to get one.

z-ya Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I have a mold for one that is very similar. It has a lip that hooks over the stock lower valance, and then is just screwed to the out valances. I made the mold of one that ended up getting destroyed.

lowrider Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) I have one that I shelved some years ago. It was on my 260z when I bought it and I have no idea who makes it . When I get down to the garage today I'll see if it has any markings that would identify it. Edited October 7, 2013 by lowrider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you could post some pictures of it too, to verify it's the same that would be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowrider Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 (edited) I haven't, school has been a bear this week. I'm going to the garage today, I will try my best to remember to get it off the shelf and snap a few pictures. After looking I found some old pictures of when I first bought the car back in 08'. Here are a few blurry pictures that somewhat show the air dam. Edited October 9, 2013 by lowrider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 tuff z Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Looks like the first one I put on my 73 back in 84 and believe it's made by Kamei. Screwed to the stock lower valence was light and somewhat flexible. Later sold it and replaced with a Xenon [urethane] and later again with a Kaminari [fiberglass] and is my favorite.

If you ever consider selling it, let me know. I hear ya about school, I have a test in the morning I need to study for...

I looked up that company, and so far the only thing close I have been able to find is a UK company, that doesn't list it. Now it could just be that they no longer provide this part, but I'm hoping that's not the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the end I'll likely end up making one. :shrug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowrider Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 I made it down to the stage and pulled mine off the shelf. I took a ton of pictures that I will upload later when I get access to the computer. Unfortunately after going over every inch, it had no markings what so ever on it. Like I said, ill post pictures shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked around and at least at one time Motorsport Auto in OC carried one that looked just like it (from catalog photos). Otherwise its probably almost as old as the car!" Sorry man!

They all "came with the car" LOL Thanks for doing that. Well it looks like I might not be able to find one, unless I convince one of the 4 owners of these that I have come across to sell me theirs. Looking forward to the pics lowrider... Want to sell it, since you're not using it? lol Edited October 16, 2013 by Six_Shooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
