'86 Camaro Z28 bumper cover question

I have an '86 Z28, are the ground effects part of the bumper cover in the front? Like, it looks like two pieces, but some people have said it is all one.

It's two pieces for sure.

History tip: When these cars werre built those front valences were installed at the dealer not the factory.
