Undamagable front air dam...
 

I'm making one, out of an airdam from the junkyard and bolting it to the lower radiator support with a hinge so it can bend back and forth, with 2 springs from home depot at each end keeping tension to pull it forward. So when i hit the bottom of my dads driveway from now on it just folds back and then goes back. I cant take the sounds of scraping anymore!

I could break it

you should look at lower of my front bumper cover GERRRRRR

Those things are annoying. Make sure the springs are stiff enough that it won't bend back at highway speed and take away some of the airflow across the radiator.

Yeah alex hit the nail on the head. because you have no real grill in your car to get airflow across your radiator thats the air dams job and if it folds back at say 45+ or so you might as well just take it off.

Yeah I already thought about that... This thing is gonna be designed good... It wont move at 100+mph wind force but when the fatass car pushes itself into the ground and that it the initial point of contact that thing will bend back.

learn how to drive in and out of the driveway dummy....

but yeah ^^^ needs a lot of tension which means it may not bend like you want it to.

I dont know my ass from my elbow about f-bodies but I doubt airflow across the radiator will be an issue at highway speed everytime I've ever heard of a car overheating it was running at slow speeds or stopped. like crawling through traffic or something.

Only other times would be like intense racing situations but.. I dont think anyone here is doing 24 hours of lemans or something

they will overheat on the highway with out the airdam..all the air will just go right by under the car

IROC Boy is correct. if you dont have an air dam the car at highway speeds it will warm up. because there is no grill to speak of in these F-Buckets. so air flow is always an issue. he needs to keep it the same size and shape for it to work properly as well. i just say stop hitting shit and youll be fine IE learn how to drive........ hahaha

yup the radiator is just sitting in warm air without that scoop.

I already learned... There is no way to avoid the scrape, the driveway is steep so unless you want me to do a wheelie and ride it into the driveway then there is nothing operation wise that can stop it...

DO IT!!!!! WHEELIE!!!!!!!!!! ILL PAY YOU!!!! AND YOUTUBE IT!!!!!!! Bahahahaha well that sux. i didnt know your driveway was that bad. shitty i guess youl have to maybe i dunno Fix the driveway?

my car scrapes if I hit my drive way at like 30 or so

slow down and take it on an angle like the rest of us pros do ya dummy.... stop the car BEFORE you hit the driveway...

No my driveway in Methuen is flat but I been living with my dad in Haverhill lately because my college is closer, and hit driveway sucks!!!

I'll give you 50 bucks if you can make it into the driveway without scraping! Its not speed or angle its about 9ft wide and its literally like ___/ so there is nothing you can do to stop scraping. Of course I slow down and go in at an angle IT MAKES NO DAMN DIFFERENCE! I'm not dum haha

lol get a truck for the winter theres a jimmy f/s that should solve the problem

I'm getting a Civic hatchback for the winter 35-40mpg FTW!

Screw this project I'm too lazy and got better things to do....

lazy ass. :)

Lol, school all week, work all weekend. :(

back up the driveway?

wait no....get hydraulics!

Lol! that would work. that plus my 4x4 springs i got lol

put a set of 1le springs in it
