*LOL*.. the "SVT Snow Plow" mod! :p I did have to turn down a few contracts for the neighbors's driveways. Plastique_synthetiX: As much as I would like to mold that thing in, I need to take it off for winter and road trips. It's an "all show, no go" item... No cornering sideways at full tilt with that spoiler 1.5 inches away from the pavement... For the people who think they have bad roads, feel free to swing by Montreal, Quebec next time you're up in the "boonies" and I'll show you what bad is  ... -40 deg in winter, freezing rain, 100 deg humid summer, cheap asphalt and 53' tractor trailers make for a bumpy commute. Trust me, my car has the scars to prove it. I-Dom-In-8: Middle grille is stock, removed the Ford logo and honed the mounting plate to have an empty oval. Big no-no for the clear bulbs in the corners, up in Montreal this is one of the ricier things you can do to your car... They're staying orange. -Mark: They supply brackets for the bottom that bolt up to the 3 holes for the splash guard under the front of the car. The back corners bolt up to the stock bumper brackets (near the wheelwell). I had to use some double-sided tape on the outer trailing edges cuz they were not sitting flush... I'd say it's a 15 minute job to remove the thing and roll the tape off the car. 25 minutes to re-tape, bolt up and apply into place. Jacking the car up is mandatory at my ride height... The paint color variance is simply because the car was dirty in this pic, and the spoiler was spankin' clean... I'll post more soon now that I've washed the whole thing

Haha. You guys kill me. "Its nice but it would not last 5 minutes here in (insert american city or state here) " Pascal lives in Montreal!!! We have the worst roads in North America, bar none! Way to go Pascal, now even highway commutes will turn into slalom practice! Seriously, it looks nice. You have huge balls, I scrape my muffler tips AT STOCK HEIGHT regularly. Maybe a ground control adjustment in the near future

Hey, hey take it easy on us buddy!! Hmm, let's see... why is it that only in the US do I get stuck behind people "camping" in the left lane?? Not only elders either, young folks do it too! How 'bout changing lanes without using indicators? Oh, turning at intersections without signaling is great too... And nothing beats accelerating away from a stoplight in those big SUVs with the left foot still on the brake pedal, just lovely! :rolleyes: Every time I see a dangerous traffic infraction in Montreal, it's from a tourist with US plates... wonder why...  You have great roads, they are much better built than ours and I must admit to envying that... Hehe, just havin' fun

That has to be the single best mod I've ever seen to a Contour, how much lower does that make the front? How much is your car lowered to by the way? You should show some pics of your exhaust system too, that rules Roger R

That paint variance may be because the silver frost paint has a slight tint to it that is hard to work with. In other words it is not painter friendly! P.S. Don't hit the corners of curbs with your sideskirt cuz they get F'ED UP!
