;) :thumb: That's what I was hoping someone would catch. I've only seen that style front airdam on the DC Yellowbird car! Unless it's something custom on their part, for I don't believe an air dam with foglight cutouts was ever offered?
Re: The Shelby CSX-VNT Owner's Thread
I believe it is an aftermarket piece from Erebuni. That is probably also the source of the rear covers with an exhaust cutout. See http://www.erebunicorp.com/ge/doshadow.htm.
Re: The Shelby CSX-VNT Owner's Thread
David is correct, that is an Ebruni front air dam. Evan Fino had one on his old CSX before it was wrecked. http://www.shelbydodge.8m.com/custom.html
Re: The Shelby CSX-VNT Owner's Thread
Too bad they don't make them anymore :( :(

If someone has a good one to copy from you can always make a fiberglass mold and make new ones.
Tempting to try it myself, as the Kaminari front airdams don't have mounting studs. Be easy to incorporate those when laying up the fiberglass in the mold.
Re: The Shelby CSX-VNT Owner's Thread
I'll have to keep an eye out for one, as well as the rear air dam with the cutout... When did this company halt the production of these pieces, any ideas?
Re: The Shelby CSX-VNT Owner's Thread
It looks ok on that car, but not great. The original style looks much more aggressive I think. I wouldn't work to hard to recreate this one.
Re: The Shelby CSX-VNT Owner's Thread
Yeah, I agree simply because the body line above the foglights wraps in too close to the car I feel. Regardless, I wrote them anyways to see what the deal is (if they woudl still do orders or reproduce them in the future). Why not investigate, right? :)
Re: The Shelby CSX-VNT Owner's Thread
If they have the molds, it would be pretty easy I am sure. Judging by the final price of them on the website link posted above, I don't think there was much demand for them.
If someone is laying some glass, copying the yellow bird ground fx would get some demand I bet.

Haven't seen that shot of the car before. Now that is a good looking Shadow!
Re: The Shelby CSX-VNT Owner's Thread
Erebuni replied that they still have one set of the sideskirts left if anyone wants them. That is the last of anything they have for the Shadow, even molds - they were destroyed after production ran out.

Me, either. Can I put that on www.shelbycsx.com and credit you, Billy?
Re: The Shelby CSX-VNT Owner's Thread
Sure! I don't remember where I got it from exactly but post it on there for all to see!

I called to try and pick them up, but he said that set that is left will only fit the 4 door shadow. Maybe it can be modified to fit a 2 door; but I don't have the skills necessary to try it.
