Finally got some time to mess with V2 of the chin spoiler after aborting V1. This time I went with yalls suggestions on using lawn edging and after a bit of fighting, trimming, screwing and cussing I got it on the car close to how I want it. It was cooooold so she didnt wanna work with me much but I got it well enough to see if its worth keepin.
I dont like how the ends by the tires are sitting so I might fab a small straight bracket to flatten them out. I also dont care for how rough it looks where its mounted, but this particular lawn edging had to be trimmed and the top bent over to get the look I wanted. Good enough for now at least.
I grabbed a roll of garage door insulation while I was at it, but decided it was much too small for a good chin spoiler. Instead of takin it back I tried to make a windshield wiper spoiler out of it. This stuff ended up bein the sucky stuff the import guys complain about not stickin to double sided tape so alot of shoegoo and some clamping later I was ready to go. Its a very small spoiler, barely noticeable unless your lookin for it which keeps with what I want for this car...dunno if itll be effective at all but its worth tryin.
One thing I noticed drivin it around after the mods is road noise...or lack of it actually. I thought it was the old crappy tires makin all the noise but after these small mods I can actually hear a VERY noticeable drop in noise. I also swear I can coast further to lights and turns than before, Ive had to start re-learning my coast points on my way to work lol. What do you guys think, any feedback would be appreciated!!!
