When I dropped my car off yesterday the service area was very full. Everybody was well apart though.

Her dealership is just outside Ft. Bragg, I think their customers are under more strict orders.

The front is fully masculine the back totally feminine so altogether is of undefined gender.
It is truly a car of it's era.

Well, the winter deicing solutions in your area most likely don't contain, beet juice, salt and 16N mixture of acids like in Tcoat's area -

Japan, where most of the pictures he posted were taken.
I wouldn't mind the skirts if colour matched but the last thing I want is to make that splitter stick out further than it already does.

I mean, I know Japan. But I'm trying to find a vendor that I can buy from online who can source the parts.

JP-Car Parts has the sides and the side pieces to the front lip. I was able to find them after searching the webz for a bit. But I can't find the actual front lip anywhere.

LOL I was being flippant more than anything. Should be a knock off Ebay lip that is close someplace.

Checked. No luck. The only one that I can find that comes somewhat close is the Max Orido front, but it's much more mild in the front.
