Post Is a new air dam needed for an F-1 body kit

Just like the subject says. Is a new air dam needed with the Front F-1 piece. It has a lot of holes and isnt very low to the ground. The few websites I have seen it on dont say anything about it in the kit or in the single just the front piece. The front is the only part I want, and theres no option below for the air dam. I dont know if its included in the cut and just not for separate retail or what.

If it doesnt come with one then you will need another one. Ive heard of peoples car overheating if they dont put on anther air dam when puting on ground effects

If you are taking about this kit that was a factory option, then no you do not need an aftermarket airdam.

If it has holes in the front, your obviously not going to need a bigger air dam. Air can flow to the stock air dam easily.

What about the Xenon and DG Motorsports body kits. Do these require a larger air dam as well. Both look like the really wouldnt change the airflow that much, but im probably wrong.
