Good day,

Yesterday I had an encounter with the curb while parking the car. I ran the front air dam into a high concrete curb... just a little bit of road rash I thought.

Today, while racing my fiend in his Firebird TransAm , the bottom part of the air dam flew off as I hit 200 km/hr. The part ripped out from the bottom of the car and flew about 15 feet in the air. It is the black abs part that forms the underside of the front low spoiler. Anybody know the price for that part?

It broke in 3 pcs when it hit the ground. There is a sensor loose underneath, I believe it to be the thermometer for the indash temp display. Anyhow, now I have to endure the abuse for having parts fly off my car during a race. What a shame...

Thanks!!
