damn, crap...argh.....nioooooo...

sigh...now that that is out of the way...

i know this might be a long shot...but does anyone happen to have an OEM airdamn (the one that came with the IMSA package) that is either f@cked or know of one near them in a junkyard.....

mine scrapes when i go over entrance ramps and the like,

and it seems as though my passenger side piece of the airdam flew off..(piece goes from the front actual airdamn to the wheel arch....)...and of course i didnt notice.....

does anyoner have this bit....or know of anywhere to get one...its a shame to have to toss the whole airdamn...

any help would be sorely appreciated


thanks,

Paul

I have one, but its in pretty good shape, so I wouldn't sell parts of it. I know that doesn't help you, sorry.

I don't have one, But don't throw it away even if you don't find it just yet. So atleast if you find it you can use it instead of kicking yourself for having thrown it away.

Paul, one of my parts cars came with the most beat-up front air dam I've ever seen. From your avatar it looks similar with the square foglight openings. I'll try to sneak the digi-cam home tonight and get some pics of it.

I'll let the whole thing go for a few bucks or trade for parts. That way you have a spare other side and spare center, but it'll take some sanding, filling, and painting to look like your pristine white paint scheme.

Yeah its on there, but its all messed up. Both the 2 side peices are cracked really bad, youd be better off fabbing one from scratch with aluminum or something..

jec,

its not as pristine as it looks...but ..if the airdam is the original ill take it.....

spare parts are great

and Mike - p28,

if it does doesnt work out with jec there, even if the sides are cracked, i can still repair it..easier for me than prefabing......

thanks all....

Paul
