    That's way too low for my tastes. It would scrape on a regular basis, and every time it did the unsecured end of the plate would be pushed back against the lower air dam. No thanks.

    That one is listed for 90-97 models. Leaves us NB folks out.

    I emailed RSpeed to see if it would fit or if they had another option for us NB folks.

    how about one like this?



    Is that what you want?

    Even works with the baby teeth, in fact... It puts them to use!



    that's the Tuckin99 plate from R-speed that they say is only for NA's. I ordered it over the summer, so I suppose they could have changed something since then, but you asked.

    I'm going to work on putting a couple of these together tomorrow because I'll have to go get some material this afternoon. I'll try to put up a pic of one tomorrow evening as soon as I get a chance.

    I have a 99, I know they had two styles. Mine fits obviously, and no it wasnt cheap, but it is nice and sturdy.

    Edit: Altiain and sammm, it does use the baby tooth on the drivers side. I had to reinstall mine.

    Yah, I'd be interested more in something like rx7gslse has. I can keep the baby teeth for legality, and I don't have to worry about scraping the plate (and pushing it back into the bumper cover) every time I enter my driveway.

    Put me down for one if the price is right!
