Hi, I am Dennis (aka:silver shadow). I am on my second car mods (have an M5 e39). I love the Neon SXT. I have a Silver color SXT and hope to learn how to put some pics up on this sight. It's a 5 speed manual and really fun to drive. I drove it from Sonoma this weekend and it did great. Shifting feels a bit sloppy compared to the M5 but maybe abel to tighten it up (I hope). I have picas web album but can't seem to get the link to my pics to work on the site. I see some really great mods, can't wait.

In most cases, UPS Ground will be used, unless you prefer USPS Priority - please let me know of any special shipping preference you might have.

So, how does the pricing work?

Simple!

Want a 72-2 sent to Houston, TX 77036?
Cost is $145 shipped, and includes the refundable $35 core charge, which is refunded if you send your stock shifter assembly back to me. You save $12.07, which is what UPS shipping would be

How about a 72-4 shipped via UPS Ground to Coventry, RI 02816?
$145 shipped, saving you $12.24

A 50-4 shipped to via USPS Priority to Burbank, CA ? Easy; $135 shipped, saving you $17.05!

How about a 50-2 shipped via USPS Priority International to Fort McMurray, Alberta Canada? $147USD shipped, saving you $13.10USD.

Please PM or email me with any questions you might have regarding this sale, or if you have an idea for a custom STS. For more STS info, go to: Maddog STS

Thanks, 2gn.org!

Sincerely,
Chuck Gregory,
aka Maddog

Hi Dennis, great to meet you. I just got my SXT (Silver) Trying to learn my way around the forum and get some mods done. I am going to do my first mod this weekend.

It tells you to wait when you try to post after one of your own posts ... (can't reply to yourself)

Yeah looked for about a month. Started with just wanting a commuter as the M5 was my daily. Tried to find the usual, toyota, mazda etc. However many people just aren't getting rid of there used cars now. I never had a Dodge but after doing some research decided it would be a fun and easy car to mod. Seem to have a problem finding the mopar lip though. I'll just keep looking. Can't wait to get her lowered.

I posted in the wheels/tires thread that you posted in the information on how to get one. I'll bring the info over here so you have it

lilsparkplug wrote:Dennis: Here is the part number for the front and rear of that lip kit in silver:
82208082 SILVER - FRONT AND REAR - $106 (QTY 35)

As of August there were only 35 sets left in the national DEPO. These are sold through your local Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep dealer. As for the side skirts, they have been discontinued for awhile but do pop up in the for sale threads every now and again.

If they no longer have the silver....here is the part number for the black:
82208077 BLACK - FRONT AND REAR - $106 (QTY 119)

Thanks LilSpark, I stopped by the local dealer in San Jose today and they of course don't have any parts. However I'll check out the forum for any other leads. Thanks

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Wed Dec 21, 2011 9:42 pm

They'll have to order them via that part number from the national depo for you. They take 3-7 days to obtain once they order them. Just give them the 82208082 number for silver and if they don't have that then the 82208077 for black. It shows up in their system as SHLD KIT AIR DAM but it's the front/rear lip kit
