You might try going into the local GM dealer and having them do a part number look up on it. After you get the part number try plugging it into www.gmpartsdirect.com See if they have any of them. Course shipping on a bumper cover and front spoiler piece will probably be a little expensive. Have you tried looking around ebaymotors yet?

I can't find that bottom piece in the parts book. Of course the bumper cover, 10020286, turns up no results on GM Parts Direct.

i've tried www.gmpartsdirect.com b4...i don't like it, and they still don't have parts listed for andy other than chevey....now of all things i found another site like 1 min after i posted this last night, it was in the Auto Detailing and Appearance board but didn't get a chance to look at it until now. front bumper cover from the P/N Goumba T gave me and this is what i found for the ground effect but one thing i noticed is that it doesn't look like it goes under the car at all. it looks like it just wraps around the front.

You have the '84 Trans Am "Aero" option. Your drawing is correct, The parts illustration may be incomplete. but it looks like the correct part.
(maybe revised from GM?)

Update: Just checked with our GM parts catalogue and I'm not findin' the thing anywhere.
Guess I'll check one of my estimating software modules.

My Parts and Illustrations Catalog is dated May 1992, I don't know what the latest is.

Same problem here

I also have a 84 T/A with the Aero front end and am needing a repacement. The one on the GM parts site is like the newer ones. Let me know if you locate any of the correct ones. I am thinking of just going to the newer style.

ya i tried them b4 and didn't see anything pre 85, now hawks has used ground fx, for 84, i guess i didn't see it b4 bcuz it sed areo pakg, and i was looking for just trans am, i thought the ground fxs were standard in 84 but optional in 82-83. o well......also TGR.com is a no no now...and looking at the NEW GM PARTS site, as long as it'll still look the same from the outside but not go under the car, i wouldn't care, but it looks like if u bought the front deflector and the upper left and upper right (whatever the hell they r) then it would sorta be like my stock piece

upper left and upper right

How bad is yours? Is it repairable? I really don't like the turn this is taking... If mine gets destroyed, It doesn't look like there's any avb in the outside world.
And I'm nowhere near happy with making it look like the 85's and up, you'd have to replace ALL the effects to make it look right.
And I'm happy having one of the rare ones.

Edit: unless it's totally obliterated or large chunks are missing...It is repairable.
