Default C5 Front Air Dam Springs
I am wondering if anyone has found just the replacement springs and fasteners for the front air dam. I don't really need the entire damn replaced - just spring and fastener.

Try a junk yard or just bite the bullet and buy the replacement, they're only around $125 for the whole unit and it's an obvious wear item, so replacing it isn't the worst thing you can do!

Try one of the used parts vendors here on the forum. Chances are they can provide you with what you are looking for.

I've got a set of springs from my original air dam. kept them "just in case" when I replaced the air dam. $12 including shipping.

That is great - can you tell me if it is just the springs or do you have the spring and the connection anchor too? If so, I am in for $12.

Yes, there are the two springs and the four end links that go with them.

Perfect - I will take them if they are still available.
