Default Air Dam Replacements In Stock - A Must For Proper Cooling!

Every time you hear that "scrape" when you are driving your C6 around town, odds are that you are slowly eating up your lower air dam spoiler. The flexible plastic can resist this abuse, but over time it begins to warp, bend and ultimately falls off.

If your air dam is currently warped or damaged, it is very important to have it replaced. The spoiler actually creates negative pressure under the car funneling the air to the radiator. In addition, a damaged spoiler will lead to hotter engine temps and reduced performance!

If you haven't taken a look at yours yet, might want to before these sell out at this price. These are also great to have on hand when it is time for replacement (it will happen!)

Our offering is for the complete 3 piece air dam replacement kit that easily reattaches to the bumper with the existing hardware. Install can be done right at home!

We have these kits available at the lowest price ever listed on the forum...

Now Available $99.99!

if i'm not mistaken, C6's feed the radiator through the big opening in the bumper,no? air damn may affect brake cooling some though.

Only the Z06 gets it from both places

Yes, but the air dam is needed to make a low pressure area to help the air move through the radiator.

that is why I removed the outer sections when I did my brake cooling from the grill area, but I left about half of the center section for radiator draw.

You are providing mis-information. There is no opening for radiator cooling under the front fascia and ahead of the air dam. The air dam does create some negative pressure behind the dam to help draw air through the radiator to help cooling, though. The only openings in front of the air dam are for front brake cooling and that is all ducted to the front wheel well and "aimed" at the front brakes.

so is this just a OEM replacement, or is it an upgrade?
