Hi, I need a stock front air dam and any associated hardware or plastic. Mine is gone, I just have the two small curved side peices and everything else is exposed....don't if that is normal or not.

Let me know what you have and if you can ship it to California...(92203)

Thanks!

I haven't had an air dam in three years. No overheat issues.

I used to live in Ridgecrest, CA. Mojave Desert. It gets to 110 here in NH, just HUMID as a mofo, you have a tolerable 110! I've even raced in that heat this past year with the Eaton. Datalogged temps. Perfect. Good luck! :beer:

And I thought New Hamshire would be cold!! I figured that it would probably be fine but since it's the wife's car for $20 it's nice to be able to say I "fixed" everything! The crown vic hwy patrol cars where I live (Indio, Palm Springs area) actually have aftermarket louvers cut into their hood, 4 sections of 'em probably 18 inches long by 4 or 5 inches wide each all the way across the hood! I'm sure its for idling with the radar on :beatnik:

Well hell, for $20... Where did you get it from? ;) I may as well get a new one for that, can't hurt!

I'm curious to see how nicely done those louvered hods are.
Can you get some pictures of them? If they're professionally done I'd like a good one from a boneyard.

No prob - next time I see one I'll get a pic for you and post it here. They're not spectacular, just bolt on louver panels but on a black or dark colored car they blend it pretty well. Here's the best pic I could find online.
