    Hey guys, I have a lowered (and stiffer-springed) 2000 grand prix. My friend talked me into picking up a girl for him, and ended up she lived up on a gravel road, with the only way to turn around pretty much to go into the grass.

    Well, theres this black shield right behind my bumper (I don't know what its called. If anyone could just tell me that I'd appreciate it) and its been scratched up before from some steep hills, but this time it was definitely hitting the ground. So now it looks like the driver's side is broken off, and its hanging diagonal. It does hit the ground but it still looks bad and more likely to break now.

    I was wondering what its called and how much it costs to fix/replace it. I assumed the purpose of it is to prevent splash on the undercarriage so I'd figure its an important part to have.

    Thanks for the help guys.

    It helps deflect the air up around the radiator. Call a junk yard and get a used one.

    Thanks but if anyone can give me the name for sure, I'd like to order it online or from a parts store if its not too much.

    I know it'll get torn up but I'd rather have a new one get torn up and break a year from now instead of a used one that will break a few months from now.

    Besides, it helps that my friend is paying for it lol

    I believe your talking about the piece with the vertical slats to it...



    Or if you have a 97-99, it would be this...


    Don't quote me but I believe the part number for the first one is..

    pn 10442031 -- lower deflector
