After market oil cooler?

[tbville]

Anyone have any ideas what this bar is?

I would like to replace or repaint if I can't get a replacement for this part as it is rusty and has a dent.

It's a nerf bar to protect the AC condenser, it bolts right off an you can blast/refinish it. It's thick as hell so I doubt it would need to be replaced.

Chin spoiler also covers it right up.

... which you should have to complement your rear spoiler, for aesthetics and aerodynamics.

At speed (100mph and over) the set makes a nice difference. A few hundred pounds of lift reduced.

If you just putt around the imbalance should not be an issue.

Thank you for the help, looking at the front spoiler kit now.

If you do decide to remove and re-paint, which I did, here are a couple of pointers for what it's worth...in addition to the two bolts under the car, there is a nut you need to access from the luggage compartment and remove to get this bar off. When I did get mine off, I initially tried bead blasting with limited success, as the coating was very thick similar to a spray on bed liner. Have a grinder ready to get this off. Then you can bead blast and coat per your liking.
