Default Front effects came in!

Ordered these before my

procedure and they came in. The driver side on mine is ripped where the bolt goes through so I had no choice. When I get better I'll try and put them on

Nice! A simple part like that even though mounted underneath the bumper can really make a difference in the appearance. Where did you purchase the parts from because I would to replace mine? They are not ripped just warped a little and don't fit flush with the underside of the bumper cover. Hope you recover soon and get back to your car.

those are more for aerodynamics than looks, they are good to have if you like to drive your car fast

I suggest getting the reinforcement brackets. For mine, I bought 2 reinforcement kits, so one above and one below each side air dam.

Good idea I didn't think of that. The previous owner put big washers on each side
