Cracked air dam

What could a cracked air dam do? Its cracked on the middle and passenger side, so the air dam is seperated into 3 pieces..

It'd probably hurt the airflow over the radiator, and you might run hotter...

Just replace the thing, it's not all that expensive. For all my parts I go to www.gmpartsdirect.com . They sell GM parts at around half what the dealer wants. All you do is tell them your VIN number and other information and tell them the part you are looking for and they will e-mail you the part # and you order it from them. They are a Chevrolet dealer in Winston-Salem, NC. They have pretty good prices, even with the crazy shipping they make you pay it's a good deal.
