Request: Air Dam

I'm curious if anyone would make me a aluminum filler panel that goes on top of the bumper where the hood latch is?

Re: Request: Air Dam

In the area where the air filters are on the MPFI and TPI setups?

I believe so.

That would be called a "Filler panel".

The air dam is under the radiator.

Re: Request: Air Dam

I made one of those for myself, made it out of thin (26 gauge?) sheet metal though.

Just cut out the shape, and soldered "tabs" on the back edge for some allen head bolts there, then painted it black.

I loved it, really looked good and clean, better than without it. Just wish I didn't have to cut out anything in the center for the hood latch and such, would look better without that

Pretty sure he meant the hood latch, not the hinge. The area in front of the radiator
