Air dam mounting question

[87we410877]

Matt, yes, exactly that is my concern that the spring washer as weak as it is would not offer enough resistance for the air dam to tear away at some point down the road. Mine were all rusted and I had removed the air dam some years ago and I'm reattaching it now during my restoration, so I'm concern and want to do it right with new studs, nuts and washers provided by Highway Stars hardware. I know Tyler just completed his and understood how he reattached his air dam and just wanted to verify his install.

The nut will bottom out on the stud before crushing the spring washer. If you have the highway stars stuff you’ll be ok. I also had brand new Gm air dams. I’ll try to get a pic, but the car is now in storage. I’ll check through my pics.

Do you have a pic of the proper install

Not great as I snapped them from a video I took but you can see the spring washer under the air dam.

Thanks! Kind of an odd mounting, that's why I questioned it.
