Hey guys..i did some searching and you can get a front lip off a jetta for the 96 lx. I'm wondering what year and modal of the jetta u can get it off from and are there any more cars that i can get if from due to the boneyard not having german made cars

Thanks,

chris

I have seen that the lip off a 90ish Toyota Camry will work if trimmed up, but I think it looks like a piece of black rubber for landscaping. I say just try to get a GT bumper, it bolts right up and then you can run some fog lights.

your rite..but its hard to find gt's in the boneyards here..hopefully they would have some coming in after this harsh winter lol

i was thinkin the same thing but using the GT front bumper with one of these cheap lips for a crx http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/88-91-HO ... ccessories

The Jetta lip is from a Jetta III (1992-1999?). It's the one I have on my LX front bumper. I think it looks awesome.

Whats the advantage to having a front lip under the front bumper?

that's aerodynamics to those without THC in their system.

Im okay with the looks of the Escort as stock, but would be glad to get an improvement in 'miles per gallon'.

Just my .02 but if you had a rectangular hole cut above the air dam, (right in front of the radiator) wouldn't it serve as an extra boost for radiator cooling?

 

[LOWETGT]

In theory, but I have never had an issue with cooling in my GT.

 

[Green91Goblin]

just a thought lol

 

[juggalo]

I believe the factory put those little ones on to help reduce drag/turbulence under the car. So it's suppose to help fuel economy. I don't know how much it really does, but it must at least a little for them to spend the time and money to put them on.
