Guest Nic-Rebel450CA Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 I am planning on putting together a multi-purpose fiberglass and/or carbon fiber chin guard for 1st gen Z's. The purposes it will be for are: Reducing air pressure in the engine bay by deflecting airflow down. Assisting in cooling engine bay by ducting air down and out. Possibly assisting with problems with exhaust turbulence by evening out air-flow under the car and allowing air to assist in exhaust passing out the rear of the car. Possibly assisting in cooling of front brakes and shocks by directing some airflow into the front fenderwell. I am wondering if anyone will be interested in purchasing these, they should be pretty inexpensive as I am not looking to make much of anything off of them, mostly just trying to get experience with fiberglass and possibly gain a bit of a reputation for when I do decide to make other products for some profit. Of course, right now I am just looking for people that might have some interest, no obligations to purchase or anything like that. If there is enough interest then I will consider making my design an assembleable multi-piece design in order to make it practical for shipping purposes and costs.

ToplessZ Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 Id be interested but what your going to run into are people that have all different types of airdams and that could make it hard to cater to everyone. I like the idea though. Probably going to fab something up myself If I can figure out the fiberglass thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Vince Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 I would definitely be interested. How about something like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nic-Rebel450CA Posted September 29, 2003 Share Posted September 29, 2003 most likely the main chin guard will extend from the radiator base mount backwards. I will probably make a mold to go from the mount forward to go under the air dam for any air dams that I can get ahold of (anyone around where I live that can bring by their Z for measurements, etc.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
