Sebring Project
« on: March 25, 2010, 01:04:24 pm »
I'm hoping to soon make this little change to the front of my car.  The plan is to put Lexan into the front vents on the bumper, as shown by the red circles in the photo below.  On the Sebring LXi model, these spots are filled by the fog lights, so there's no harm in plugging the holes.  Any improvement in aerodynamics, most likely slight, will hopefully result in a decrease in fuel consumption at highway speeds.

Does anyone have any experience in cutting and shaping Lexan?  Are there tools you'd recommend for the job?

No idea. No experience.
