Air Dam - braces?
Does someone have the part number or a source for the two metal pieces which go to the middle of the center air dam?

It's not just 2 metal pieces. It's your radiator support cradle. Here's a link to one from Zip:

All I need are the two loop looking aluminum pieces which the bolt passes through into the lower radiator support. I have the two bolts in the end pieces currently.

Thanks!
And wow... $30 for those things. And I know I threw them away last year after not needing them for a few years too!

It's for a Corvette so $30 seems like a bargain considering they could be $200.

The voice in my head is seriously considering buying a metal ruler, bending it in the vice, and drilling it to fit. It would serve the same function.

I had gotten a new air dam at Carlisle a few years back - and finally last weekend got around to cutting 1in off the bottom and installing. Was interesting to see how the center rocks on those aluminum pieces....
