i have an 87 trans am. i cant seem to get one of these things, i need the one thats below the radiator support. it seems that for some reason that the camaros come with one piece and every kit for a firebird or t.a. has 3 pieces, dont need three. i tried the dealership they dont have it either

I know Hawks has them for the Camaros for 25 bucks... Dont know if they have them foryour Bord though... Im a cheap bastard I just cut a piece of 16G sheet metal as wide as my Rad, and about 7 inches long, bent a lip of about 1 inch to bolt it to the lower rad support and it seems to work.

Never mind, here is a link to yours, but sory it is all three pieces and its a bit spendy....
