Default Air Dam

Where's the best place to get an air dam for my C5? I straddled a tire in the road this morning heading to work and it broke my air dam. The local dealer quoted me $50.

How much did you pay for your air dam?

From Ken Fitchner..
http://temp.corvetteforum.net/c5/ken...rtspage6.shtml

Although for his price of $42 on the center airdam, if you're impatient $50 might not be too bad from your local dealer. I would rather buy from Ken and support someone who's been a great supporter of this forum. You might also look and see if there's anything else you want to get from him and combine on shipping.

I thought I had read on here that you could get them for much less than $50. I guess it was wrong. Actually, my father works at the local dealer so they will treat right I just had a new set of wheels installed on my car and they charged a whopping $22 for it
