      I thought so. I've been there for about 3 years or more. I'm down in Portland.

        I might get one from the jy and try it anyway. That and some egt side skirts. Hmmm.
        BTW, what kind of plastic is this? Hard plastic like the 88-89 626 lip, or rubber? I might have to cut it like aforementioned.

          no the bg is wider... see how it fits up first, there's gotta be a bg in your yard.

            Anyone else feel that the S10 air dam is alittle too low? I threw mine back on after having it off for about sixmonths. I scrap everywhere! not lowered at all. Any other options mx-6 lip maybe?

                got mine for 8 bucks but it just doesnt suit me for some reason. I love the way it looks, hate the way it scraps.

                  Mpg, as if it could get much better, near 50 with mine.

                  You bet I'll get one.

                      Hah... best of luck. I had mine specially imported for me. You can find them but very rarely. Especially in our bolt pattern/offset.

                        Arses everybody has one....

                        my SE model I would rather use the S-10 lip as it is used and the car is use also.

                        If I use a Vw lip, New, I would be putting it on a GT/GTX front bumper rather than putting the nicer trimmed lip on the tin vallance beneath the SE models bumpers, that is too getto, cheap looking for my taste to have something that neat on a crumpled piece of metal. Therefore I will use the S-10 until I change bumpers.

                        Thanks for the VW Lip Idea... What VW does it go onto so we may order it!

                              it from golf MK3 you have to cut in because it's too wide... but since it is made in 2 pieces, it is easily acheived!
