TABrinn Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I know this gets asked all the time but can anyone ID this air dam? I know it's from MSA but that's about it. The pic is of Mark Rolston's Z from a Super Street write up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TABrinn Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 Thanks! That was my best guess too. I just wasn't sure because it's a head on picture. Why don't they post quarter angle shots? They give you a better idea of the over all shape of the parts. Might actually sell a few more too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 You can get the fiberglass or urethane version. 240hoke has the urethane version like mine but he braced his and painted it. The urethane version without bracing does deform a good bit at speeds over 60MPH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mario_82_ZXT Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 It folds inward because of the air resistance. Mario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlderThanMe Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Yeah... I had an extra couple inches of rubber below the poly air dam giving me 2.5" of ground clearance at the front. After a drive on the highway at ~75mph a bunch of my added rubber was gone in the middle. Somewhere there are some pics of a Urethane air dam at high speeds buckling down really far. Now if it is installed with bracing and blocking off the open area behind it then it won't flex near as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the best way to brace it (details). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
