The spook transformation

[Arne]

Zedy, Does it involve drilling holes to fit the new spook. I'm keen to fit one, but don't really want to make any holes.

I don't see any way that it could be done semi-properly without drilling. Here's a discussion on mounting:

Thanks guys. I might just give it a miss then. I don't really want to start drilling holes in a near new valance.

Totally understand, olzed. It gave me pause, as well. The spook was the only modification I did to my car that was not 100% reversible, due to the holes in the valance. But in the end, I felt I had to have it, as the spook was part of my memories of how 240Zs were back when I was young.

This might be the very reason I have this spook still hanging on my garage wall for the past 32 years. Hmmm...

The air dam makes the car more stable at higher speeds and who will look waaaayyyy down under to see a few nicely placed holes? If it was concourse car then maybe it would make a difference but for looks and performance, it is a great addition in my opinion.

Agreed. Before the spook, my wife informed me that she didn't want to ride in the car on the freeway due to how badly it got blown around by crosswinds and such. This was at 65-70 MPH. The spook cured that. Well worth a few holes in the valance.
