Just got it
So I just got this for $35.



What do yall think?
Now the only problem is I cant get the screws off my car that are holding the old air dam on. What can I do? Since using a phillips head sd is the only way to get them out.
Thanks..

Wahoo! Nice find. All those rusted bolts... just break them off & get new ones. The bolts connecting parts staying on the car you should soak several times w/ penetrating oil (PB Blaster is #1).

OMG I have those same computer speakers! You are a genius... oh wait, no you're not.
GO USA

How many Cherry Pies does it take to remove a 280zx front valance?

None, because your valance is already gone.

I thought you said you decided against the air dam due to some sort of complications ?
