There is a black hard rubber trim piece directly under the front bumper that was damaged dur to winter storms, I am trying to find the replacement part but cannot even get a part description. It is located directly behind the front bumper and is attached with screws underneath the bumper. It travels the whole length of the front grill and looks like it is an airscoop for the radiator or protects the radiator from underneath. Any ideas? I an looking ot find, purchase and replace the item.
Thanks,
Jack

If you cant locate it new I would sugguest going to a junk yard or maybe ebay. To see if you can get one. The air dam serves a purpose when its warm out. It directs air from the front of vehicle and helps keep the air in the engine compartment to prevent overheating the vehicle.
