AirDam front spoiler questions

Is the air dam 1 or 3 pieces? If it is 3 pieces, can I buy just one of them? I am missing the piece below my intake. I am attatching a pic of what I am talking about. I am thinking it is costing me some decent top end power. The part with the Xs is what I am missing.

Your GTA is 3 pieces that go basically the whole way across the car. Camaros and other Firebirds usually use a simple one-piece that just hangs down under the radiator support and does not go the whole way across the car.

I wish I could give more info (like how those 2 side pieces attach and if they're separate from the rest of the nose-cone) but it's been too long since I was actually under one so I'm way too fuzzy on the fine details.

Simple fix. Go to the bone yard find a 90's+ cadilac deville snag the air damn from that. Its basicly the same shape as your air dam but one piece. Cut 2 inches off the ends mount it in place add a couple extra self tapping screws and your done. Worked fine for me and looks the same as the GTA always parked down the street that is stock.
