this is my idea for the front end, if i can pull it off what do you think?

Nice looking car no doubt ! Can you send me a few more pics including interior and engine bay ?... Thank you.

I got off track for a moment and yes some people like their cars with the original front valance look which also in turn protects the radiator from freeway debris.

sorry to say that this isnt my car, just a google image to photochop from. mine needs alot of work

What are you planning to use to fill in that bumper gap and turn signal encasings?

zrisch

plan on molding the gap with fiberglass, then building off that with foam to bring it flush, then more fiberglass and body filler. if im happy with the shape, ill make another mold of that and the lower valance so i can lay it up and make it one solid peice that bolts on

That's pretty close to what I was thinking of doing. I like the sharp lip of the 30th anniversary rather than the urethane air dam which has more angle to it that what you have pictured there. The front opening is too large as well for aerodynamics. The stock rad is much smaller than what you have pictured and with an intercooler and oil cooler you still have too much of a "mouth". You'll have to close it up a bit for less drag. Other than that it's very close to what I've been thinking would be a nice front air dam for the S130.

Just curious what you would use for foam for shaping the air dam before you fiber glass it....

zrisch

mostly expanding spray foam because i know fiberglass wont eat that
