Re: Lost my ground effects????
Welcome! This is a great place for information on just about everything there is to know about the 4th gen F-Body.
Your pics are coming up as errors for me, but your best bet is probably ebay for those front ground effects. They're pretty hard to come by, but pop up on ebay every once in a while. Or try you local junk/salvage yard.aka FreedStyle

Re: Lost my ground effects????
The ground effects hardware, is in my view, deliberately made so that is you do something dumb - like hit a curb or go a little too aggressively on unpaved roads (thinking you are Burt Reynolds in Smokey & the Bandit) - the ground effects hardware will break loose - but keep you from incurring worse damage. It is a simple matte of checking on the GFX every so often to be sure things are not loose.
At least, that is the experience of this redneck who has taken his Firebird on numerous unpaved adventures and slammed into one too many high curbs.
Yes, it does mean you have to keep checking to see what minor parts are loose.
As far as finding a replacement part - Robert is right, as usual - they tend to be expensive. Keep checking ebay and one should turn up.I solemnly swear I am up to no good.
