Alright

Alright well I was looking on google and went to Yearone.com and found a bunch of diffrent air defeltors but this is the only one that looks like what I need, theres a few that dont have pictures but the descriptions are horriable so who knows but could this possiably be what I'm needing.

[1982-1987 Trans Am lower deflector, GM. ]
"From Yearone.com"

The only reason I'm douting getting this is because my car isn't a T/A but this is what I need is it just an error in their description or should I continue looking thanks and heres a picture .

Have you tried the dealer? Believe it or not, but they arent all that expensive. Ande I think the dealer calls it an 'air deflector'

You should be able to get them on ebay as well. They run about 25 dollars...

Man ahah I've looked on Ebay the past week please tell me you didn't find one, I' ve looked up all the names Air Dam, Air Deflector, Front Spoiler, The only ones I found were for Camaros the One piece ones and 25 sounds about right thats what Yearone.com wanted .

Go see your local dealer. It's still available, same price as online, no shipping, you'll have it next day(maybe two).

I just got a new one for my '87 Formula, and I'm pretty sure yours is the same part--old number 10017672, changed to 10118485.

The one you showed from YearOne is part number 10017673. The one you'd want is the next one on the list, which will be part number 10118485. But like I said, you can still get it from your dealer. And he can confirm the part number for you to be safe.

Thanks

Hey thanks alot, I called today to the Local Suntrup Dealer and Of course they were closing in 5 minutes from the time I called, As I looked for this peiece I can see why so many people post about it when I took mine apart in all there are 4 totall peiecs of the Air Deflector its self
1&2. The Driver and Passenger Side peieces.
3. The Center Piece that connects to the Radatior support
4. Then the Lower Air Deflector that Connects all the 3 and runs underneth them all and is connect with push rods.

The part I'm needing is #4, But thanks alot for everyones help I'm glad someone actually posted that they purchased theirs from the dealer and not just telling me to go there but thanks everyone.
