Re: shorter front gfx.

im just tired of having my bumper torn up every time i hit a speed bump... its just to low to the ground. i was thinking of making it into a z28 clone anyway...

Re: shorter front gfx.

not to sound sarcatic, but either park short or back into parking spots. rear bumper clears just fine. that's what I do.

as for speed bumps, drive crosswise over them. that is the curse of the 3rd gen.

Re: shorter front gfx.

what rubs on speed bumps is the lower air dam . sounds like you are scratching the underside of the car . dont remove the air dam or you will have cooling problems . air dams are easy to replace every couple of years if you need to . also very easy to make . learn to love it . it goes with the property .
