Hello all!
I'm looking for the name of the plastic body part that sits
behind the air dam under the front bumper on a 1997 SL2. I
believe it's some sort of splash shield.

Also, any links to illustrated parts list for the above-mentioned
car are GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Hi again!

There's been some progress made:
apparently it's called a "lower radiator baffle," a "lower cooling baffle" or
a "engine splash shield" or somesuch.

Any idea where I might find such a thing?

Thanks again in advance!

number 12 in this picture? - http://www.trademotion.com/schematics/images/I/IB96050.gif

that is from saturnparts.net. it is listed just as "shield", but most people i talk to call it the lower splash shield.

its in the catalog under "cooling - radiator support"

you can allways go junkyarding it is a good experience and the price is right
