Front Spoiler FC

Does anyone have or know where I can get an older style functional front airdam for the stock front fascia on an early FC? I am looking more for the airdam style rather than the Tuner/ Drift style as I want to bolt on a splitter to it and have it removable when I load the car on to the trailer. Something similar to my crushed AWR nose piece would be great. Even clues as to where I should look would be awesome. Something similar to the factory dam, but that will fit a stock nose.

Thanks

Eric

Anyone had experience with these EBay Duraflex Noses? It doesn't have to be perfect, just fit well enough to look good from 15 feet away. I will be using dzus fasteners to hold it on.

How about a stock S5 front lip?

I've got one but no FC anymore.

Thanks for the ideas. The Shine unit is still too high off the ground and more for show and will require me to create an extension to get it to dam off the air and create a base for the splitter. As well he wants $200 firm and the new one that covers most of the issues is only $292 with free shipping within the US.

The stock S5 is a nice idea, however it would also require too much fab. If anyone has any of the drift style noses laying around, that would be interesting as they all have great bases to build working aero off of. Even the one I showed will still need a ton of the nose filled in to create a proper surface to build up air pressure to create some frontal downforce.

Keep helping guys, I appreciate it.

Eric
