TTA "under spoiler"
The "under spoiler" (my name) - directly under the radiator of my TTA has taken a few hits from the auto movers - about half of the holes are busted out and it's got at least two tears/breaks in it. The metal screen is also mangled.
I'm trying to figure out if anyone knows a) if GM has discontinued (bet they have) and/or where else to get them - I'm not even inclined to try a junkyard as I figure these took a hit within 1,000 miles on darn near every car.

Yep, that's the air dam, or air deflector (it goes by many names). I pretty sure GM still makes them, because Hawks sells them new. Here's a link to them:

Does this look like what your asking about, just to be sure?

might be - I gotta take another look but mine only looked about 4 inches top to bottom and that looks wider. Also had a metal screen that looked like the mesh around a cat converter in the middle. I have to a) get a parts manual and shop manual and b) take a real close look. The TTA is a little different around the radiator, etc. obviously. Thanks though guys - this is a good sign.

What you are talking about is the intercooler shroud. They are not available form GM and haven't been since 90. If you can find a good used one they run around 500 or so on ebay. I had one fabbed out of aluminum by mease performance. He was selling copies a while back for around 200 or so, look him up on turbobuick.com.
