I've had those in the past that have asked, but haven't had enough interest.

This is the rubber that attaches to the flexdam. Just got another call today so said I'd check to see if we can get this going. I need 12 committed at $65 each for the GB to make this happen.

After the rubber only will be $89.

Picture of the green car is fiberglass only

Eliot's car has the rubber attached.

I get requests every so often. I have to do up about 30 of these to cover the materials needed. Don't mind holding them on the shelf, but need to have enough interest to do these to start.

Who's in?

Farris is not in the building. Not giving up yet, but not seeing any traction here.

I have to do about 2k worth of rubber to do these, so far I haven't had even 1/5th of that. So not really penciling out right now.

Thanks Mark for the response. I get it, another 80’s mitcom thing that is no longer popular.

I'm in for one.
I have had one on my car for years, it kind of looks like black rubber garage floor trim.
I have had many complements on it.

Mark,

Any plans to bring back or remake the the flex dam without the holes/rubber that you previously sold?

I'd buy one of those today.

Yes, I need to redo the molds for it. It was nice in that you could also tow with it in place and the tow bar acted to provide a little more protection to the air dam.

That's great news. I always found that to be better looking than the LE spoiler.

I look forward to it being available again!

High quality piece and I've been really happy with mine. It's held up to a couple strong *ahem* cone whacks at the autocross and hasn't shown any signs of damage.
