Default Looking for Air Dam replacement

Looking to install an air dam to the front of car. Thinking it might help the "flightiness" when going over 70-80 mph. Any suggestions?

Helps a lot. Look at Stinger Fiberglass, I just ordered the racing one from them. Do you have the factory air dam?

Are you talking about stock parts or aftermarket? The aftermarket providers carry reproduction stock chin spoilers. These might keep the nose down a little at speed, but their primary purpose is cooling.

I don't know...just trying to be cost effective and help with the "light" feeling when going at high speeds. Going to check out a Corvette graveyard in Piedmont, SC and see if they have one. Kim
