anyone try the msa 'bre style' airdam on a lowered 240?

FWIW, I have the fiberglass version of that "spook". My car is lower than stock (see my sig). The "spook" is only about 3-4 inches above the pavement. Yes, you will scrape it on speed bumps, and dips, but the real killers are the concrete stoppers in parking spaces. Right after I installed my "spook" I ran over one right in front of a bunch of other Z guys...very noisy, and embarrassing, but no real damage. You just have to become aware that you have this thing hanging down and adjust your driving accordingly. They do make a difference at speeds of 80 mph and above...you can feel the steering get a bit heavier instead of becoming lighter at speed. Also if you ever need a roll-back tow truck it makes for interesting discussions with the tow truck operator (ask me how I know). They do look very retro-cool though. As far as installation goes on my '73 there were three tapped holes in the radiator support that I used to bolt it on plus drilling two more in the turn signal valences...measure three times before drilling holes in your "spook" and your valences.

Cheers, Mike
