My stock air dam is non existant, I believe this would cause some of the shacking i experience over 95+, I cant find a junkyard around me that has any parts 2g eclipses so I was trying to find one online and still not luck all i see is people saying "make one" , but I didnt know what materials to use etc was wondering if anyone either a.) knew a place to buy one, or b.) had a site that explained how to make it.

thanks in advance
 
Firstly, is everything in your suspension in perfect condition? Are your wheels perfectly balanced?

My '95 TSi AWD shoke at higher speeds (~75+) only when my wheels were a little out of balance.

I hope you need this for legitimate road course racing or track racing, and not street driving. I think there is info on one on VFAQ.com though if you need to make one.
 
First off, the car came stock with an air dam, i just want to put it back for protection of the pulleys, alternator, etc.. all completely open at the moment :), i live in Maine, the snow and mud is horrendous and id like to protect that stuff al ittle more, they were redoing the roads around here and I found tar stuck to everything in that general area. If it helps with downforce some that is just bonus

2ndly I doubt my suspension is perfect LOL, but my tires are near perfectly balanced, though my rims are a little warped. I plan to replace the suspension but that is a far more expensive task then slapping an air dam on.
