BTW..where'd you find the window air deflectors? I thought those weren't available anymore!

The OEM JDM window deflectors are virtually non-existent, but WeatherTech still makes theirs for the VX. I've read the JDM version fits a little bit better than the WeatherTech.

They're available at a few places I think, but Summit Racing always has them.

What are the pods on top of the mirrors?

[pnwdawg]

Some unique looking blind spot mirrors =D

[89Vette]

Navistar has those mirror "pods". I think they work pretty well!

[pnwdawg]

I got them from this seller "Car Side Blindspot Blind Spot Mirror Wide Angle View"
$3.99 each

ANSWER...from one of these two sources:

1) In past years a member named "Ron" made them, out of ABS plastic. He stopped making them several years ago. Sometimes you can find them for sale by another member who is selling their VX. I got my front and rear skid from a member selling his VX.


2) Member "rowhard" currently makes them. He started making the front plate a few years ago, and just lastt year started making the rear skid. Contact him for price and details.

Love the skidplates, anyone know if someone makes them or can make them steel or aluminum or such, Id'e buy that, else I would still buy the abs version...awsome VX by the way, I wanted to do something similar in the way of the di-noc. Enjoy!

you can't buy the ABS version new as those were discontinued by Ron....Rowhard makes only fiberglass.

BUT, METAL would be awesome!
Rowhard....are you listening?

Yes, we need a good steel-worker / welder / fabricator in the VX community wanting to make a profit, any takers?

Did somebody say fabrication?
Skid plates? Push bars? Nerf bars?

I really want some black nerf bars...

I thought about... depends on your definition of "good"


Seriously though, I had a thread about starting fabrication for VX parts. I still might make a couple things but in reality we (VXers) are unique and typically want different things to make our own look. There's a couple things everyone seem to like... skid plates & the concealed hitch. Fabricating takes a lot of time and effort so you need many buyers to actually make "profit" and for the most part there's just not enough VXs to make that happen.

Agreed, but If someone does make a steel skid plate that looks just like the ABS version I'm sure that it could at least sell 50 pieces including to myself, as long as it is good quality. So if JDM or you or someone fabs a prototype and starts a pre-order or commit to buy thread after test fit and pics on their own rig ( they could keep it for themselves it not enough people commit to buy ) I'll be the first one in line.
