Previous papers have shown that the dwarf nova OY Car has an extensive vertical disk structure during its superoutbursts. This structure is analogous to that seen in the low mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs), in that the whole disk flares toward its edge, and there is a bulge or 'dark spot' where the mass transfer stream meets the disk edge. The paper presents evidence suggesting that two more dwarf novae may have such a stream impact bulge, which manifests itself as a dip in the UV light curve, analogous to those seen in the X-ray light curves of the LMXB dippers.
