Thread: Front air dam install tips...?

    Default Front air dam install tips...?

    Before I get myself embroiled in an install of my new front air dam, I thought I might poke around and see if there were any tricks of the trade I should know. Will I need to drill any new holes or get any new hardware, or does it just bolt up with what's already there?

    Yeah, I know I could prolly get up under there and look at some point, but my hands are still healing from my CAS o-ring/heater hose job... boo-hoo...

    You will need to drill holes and need some nuts and bolts to install it.

    I think I used some of those big paper clips to hold it in place for drilling when I put one on my '92.

    All the mounting bolts came with my OEM R Pkg front and rear lips. I also had to drill holes. Clamping the lip in place while drilling the holes and installing the hardware does make it much easier.

    Thanks for the tips! I got it installed, no problemo. Mine came with all the hardware, and even some semblance of instructions (the bulldog clips were a great idea, though!). Anyhow, that's done... now I'm having the front end repainted as we speak - so that's one more thing I can scratch off the list for 2007.
