I don't know what to do with my old air damn, I got the new air damn from motor sport that replaces the bumper, valenc, and air damn, so I posted the old air damn on ebay for like 9 dollars. is this a good price? it is in good shape.

 

ah... the stock one. $9 sounds good. Shipping shouldn't be bad either cuz it's plastic.

 

I Think He Means The Metal Part Of The Air Dam, Thats The Grille, Even Still 9 Bucks Is A Good Price

 

That pic is from his ebay auction...

SORRY NISMO, NOT TO INSULT

 

You've been forgiven my lad... now go, do no more harm.

man... I'm gettin too carried away w/ these smilies!

 

OH WISE ONE NISMO, TEACH ME YOUR MASTERY

 

Bah! You're the one w/ the Bob Sharp look alike!

 

JEALOUS??? HEHEHE BOB SHARP IS MY HERO

 

You guys are having TOO much fun with these icons..

 

BTW, the non-turbo plastic grill looks great behind the MSA air dam. I had mine mounted like that for a while. Now I removed it to make room for an intercooler and license plate

 

No!!! No license plates allowed on that MSA kit!

 

License plate is mounted inside the air dam, behind the opening. No holes were drilled in the mounting of the plate.

 

Why do you need a front plate?? Is it mandatory or something?? Here in Nevada, front plates are not required. Mine are on the garage wall, in case my car gets stolen and I have to remember what my liscence plate # was.

 

All four states I've lived in so far have a mandatory front plate law. CA, SD, NE, and VA. But then, since when does Nevada follow the same rules as the rest of the country

 

There's a lot that is legal to do in Nevada that is not legal in other states!

Yes, in Washington we have to have a front plate and it is enforced! I've been pulled over for it.

 

i never had one on my z31 and never got messed with for it. and that was a few years in CA and a few in WA.

 

yeah colorado requires it and its expensive if u get a ticket... i used to live there and it was like 150 for no plate on the front...

 

I don't have one on and I have never been pulled over or asked about it and it's been a few years here in Colorado, in California it was on the front though but I tend to get lucky... and I think I have a few good excuses (never used though..):
the holes don't line up - didn't want to drill a new one on the license plate/no mounting
someone stole it
"you have to have one on the front?"
it was hanging by one screw - I took it off so I wouldn't lose it.

I know alot of people who just put their plate up above the gauge cluster on the dash - maybe do that?

 

they make a screwless mounting unit but i'm in not sure where to get it..

 

Just get a piece of angle aluminum and cut it to length and screw it to the bottom of your bumper where the metal frame is, then screw the license plate onto the angle and voila! you have a front mount license plate that doesn't screw into the front of your bumper, it hangs below the front bumper.

 

Or do like LWW said, but go 1 step further. Hinge it in the bend, where it starts to turn up and put a cable actuater on there somehow. So you can fold it up under neath the bumper. Figure it out and offer it as a kit. You'll make a fortune selling it to enthusiates. Especially in the states that require front plates. Everybody hates that front plate.

 

I've wanted to do something like that w/ my rear plate. I saw the tightest thing on the video from the "Import Expressions 02" video... a WRX w/ a fold down rear plate & when it folds down, blinding spotlights turn on! Totally illegal, but James Bond to the max!

 

Wouldn't that block up a lot of airflow to the radiator?
