I took the airdam off of a '91 jetta, flipped it upside down, shortened it and screwed it on so it sticks forward off the rabbits airdam. It looks umm, almost cool :roll: my friends think I'm weird :lol: If I could figure out how to put pics on here I'd do it.
Has anyone else tried to improve the aerodynamics of the rabbit? I tried to put a wing spoiler on my rabbit but it looked really stupid and didn't help at all. Has anybody cut the rain gutters off, or just bent em' in? I noticed that rabbits have a lot of wind noise caused by the gutters. This forum is sweet
!
I didnt have time to cut the gutters, I know that someone used to make covers for them. For my trip this weekend from tucson az to carson city mi I think that I am going to tape over them for increased milage towing the uhaul trailer with the TDI caddy I will give milage reports when I am done
Didn't those covers still let water drain? I like the idea.
I think that you are right on the letting water drain, I think that they clipped on the protruding edge of the rain shield or what ever they are
I have never seen them in person but have always wanted a smooth contour there
here's a picture of my spoiler, I don't keep it on just for driving around home 'cause it hits the ground real easy, I saving it for a road trip :lol:

can you post a front view pic. of your rabbit? that spoiler don't look that bad!
i like it! lets see what it looks like from the front?
thanks Duane
Here ya go,
I hope this helps my rabbits mileage :lol:
VW made a small and large chin spoiler for mkI/rabbit. they also made a-pillar fairings to pass the air over the rain gutters next to the windshield for mkI/rabbit. i bought this stuff from the dealer about a year or two ago but stocks were running thin. still, these parts are 'plentiful' by rabbit standards. cheers
