Your front fender matches as good as my rear bumper! Those skirts are cool. |
I can make you a set if you want lol |
Just say no.

While I’m not particular about appearances and used coroplast due to it being cheap and easy to work, I’d love to make a set from Celtek, which is a PVC foam board available in thicknesses similar to coroplast, and at a similar weight. It produces a more finished look and is also easier to paint than is polypropylene... |
It’s been a while since I updated my thread, but the car still exists (I swear)... i got new tires installed (Hankook Kinergy ST 205/65-15) and changed my oil, and I’ve noted a noise coming from the front end that’s distinctly sounding like wheel bearings, so I’m saving money up for that... I have noticed greater rolling resistance so no doubt mileage is down, not that I’ve been tracking it too closely lately... i also got back into ridesharing due to missing the side income, so I’ve also been working the car much harder lately... |
Interesting. Haven't seen this done to an ion yet. Look into splitters as well for the front. Can get some cheap universal ones on eBay or wish.
Also, I've had luck with the ebay wheel bearings. 40 or 50 for both with abs |
Awww man, I once again forgot to update my build thread... I ended up losing a wheel skirt from driving too fast so I took the other one off until I can remake the mounts...
I also did new Moog wheel bearing/hub assemblies with new Stoptech brake pads and a set of drag reduction clips... car will consistently pull 42-45mpg highway measured at the pump as it sits but I need to redo some things and... check my tire pressure? It’s been a while so I don’t doubt they’ve leaked some but they *should* be at 55psi... |
I got a new steering wheel from a salvage yard. It’s a leather wrapped wheel from an 06 Lv3 car, but will need some cleaning... it has the cruise buttons but I’m not hooking them up bc my car doesn’t have cruise...
|
Got the steering wheel swapped over (details in Detailing sub-forum), but the other night I hit a raccoon going 70mph, with no damage on the outside of the car, but it did wreck my fender liner and radiator duct... I bet I used almost a dozen zip ties stitching the panels back together and reattaching them...
people made fun of me when I did the lawn edging air dam but it scrapes dozens of times a day in ridesharing use and it took a hit from a raccoon at 70mph and it’s still there... |
You should mount a camera so you can share vids of all the stuff that dives in front of and into the side of your ride.
I didn't realize I forgot to make fun of you for the lawn edging. I'll get right on that. |
