Maybe,
It may also be from another company that we bought out their molds that did work for the factory racing team. There were even some 911 goodies there too
Here's a before and after to give you an idea of what we have had to do to some of these molds.

And for those of you that know 911s, take a good look at the lid. This isn't an ordinary lid.

Looks like a 930 lid (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)
When the 76 is closer, I'll need one of those carbon fiber front spoilers.

I recognize that air dam because it's the same one as on my car which can be purchased here:

I had mine molded in black

It looks like they cut a hole out for the cooler similar to what I did.

Anyone recognize this front air dam in white? I like the look and was curious if it is still made.

Thx.

Actually the AIR one is different in that it would have to be cut and add in a sloped intake.
Mine has the area ready to be cut out with less modification. It looks to be the same as the green car. You can see the slope in the shadow

Not debating that your air dam is the better choice for a front cooler.

The OP's question was "whose dam is it" and it is definitely the AIR International dam at the link in my post. I have a love/hate relationship with the damn dam because it is the tallest one I know of and I hit it on EVERYTHING. I swear I've repaired it about 10 times now.

I stand corrected.
I saw a little "rib" like the one on my part where there really wasn't one. It looks like the "scoop" is just pushed forward past the fiberglass.

Ha. Front Brake ducts.

I dare people to take actual racing brake temps

Mine by the way were 1500F rear
600 F front

Guess what
All of my front brake cooling ducts are now removed

I went 2 steps softer compound in the front pads
And lowered my front spring rates to get more dive/more weight transfer/more front temps

I would highly recommend checking your actual brake temperature s before thinking of cooling them
