Let me show you a magic trick. How to make a freshly minted airdam disappear...............poof
[emoji38] I know, sure isn’t much to see. But it fits better, it’s stronger and when I eventually get around to trimming out the license opening to allow more airflow, it’ll look better then.

There’s a lip that it attaches to. So it’s not as wide as the fenders, but it’s also made to fit behind the factory bumper. Which sits under that flange too.

My iPd airdam has been cut to within an inch of its life and I never liked how much I had to trim it to use it AND a front bumper so I made my own. Also added some built in oil cooler clearance a la Porsche 911 RSR (not that close, but that’s my story and I’m sticking to it). Probably the heaviest mold I’ve ever made. 7” thick worth of 3/4” MDF cut to 6’ x 1’ I missed taking photos of a couple steps and I’m pretty sure the GoPro locked up and didn’t record any of it. Oh well. The flares on the edges look a bit extreme, but I’m thinking once the bumper is back on it might not look that bad.
Also, were these always color matched on the wagons?

The color is exactly what I wanted. It has taken some getting used to though, since it was the other color for soo long.

Not much in the way of big steps, but it’s getting down to the wire, so if I can just get a couple things done each day, I’ll probably make it?
I think tomorrow after work I can get the taillights, mid windows and side markers in. Then it’ll be all sealed up again.

Great idea! That’s the location of PNW Wagonfest later this year. Should be able to do it!
