Default Lower Valance, Air Dam?

Anyone have a part number for the lower valance? I'm interested in the air dam piece that attaches to the bottom of the plastic valance of the front bumper. I have drop hangers and would like to cover up where the front spring mounts.

Thanks

I'm interested in the OEM plastic lip (maybe called an air dam) that extends from the plastic lower valance cover on the bumper. First picture is of my truck without it and the second truck is one with.

I'll agree with the above, give RiffRaff a holler. Mine didn't have it when I bought it, I'm good without.

I think I might have one that I can give you but shipping might be a PIA.

Thanks, glad a vender active on the forums. Your products have recently been pointed out to me and since then I've picked up your OCR, HPX, and FRx all quality parts. I'm placing an order with you again this weekend as soon as I measure the intercooler boots on my E99, which is only making 10psi at best and I suspect one of my couplers is split (factory couplers at 180K miles). I'll shoot you a PM.


CSIPSD,
Not sure if the crash bar will be in the way of this plast piece or not. I recently installed the hangers/crashbar and the hangers appear strong enough that the crash bar really isn't needed.

I can't remember if this valance/air dam was originally on the truck or not. I'm interested in covering up the leaf/bolt in front to avoid as much road spray as possible getting in there, especially in the winter months.
