I really haven't gotten underneath to see how bad the damage is - can the air dam be bent back in to place, or is it junk now?

I would replace it, even if you can bend it back, just to make sure there are no remains. If there are, you will know when the summer heat comes.

Sorry for the damage, but it appears to be not too bad.

Glad you were not hurt. I have a second home in Utopia, west of San Antonio. The roads there are awesome, but there are a lot of deer and other wildlife out there. Gotta be careful on Texas country roads.

Hope you dont find any more damage. The air dam is inexpensive and easily replaced. Fichtner Cheverolet and Fred Beans, both Forum vendors, should have them. Good luck with the fix.
