Why, against a known good butt, of course!

Version 3 of the air dam, as applied to my winter beater 2000 Metro...



Strips of Coroplast are also screwed underneath the main "bumper" portion of the bumper to take the upper screws through the air dam. No unsightly holes, should I ever want to reverse the mod.





This one is closest to the one tested, with the exception that I haven't made any grille openings in it yet. Since it's now winter conditions, I'm going to leave just half of the upper bumper-hood gap open instead.
