69NC 21 Report post Posted June 5, 2016 While test fitting my grille, I found out that in my box of stuff from the PO, I had sport lamps but no brackets. It turns out that the brackets are not reproduced, well part of it is, but not both parts. So just like the drip pans for my convertible, I decided to make my own brackets. Thought others may have run across this too. Like all parts I cannot find, it starts with cardboard: After several rounds of trial fitting, it begins to take shape Once it looks and fits well, I transfer it to metal Then the cutting and shaping starts: more trimming, and few touch ups with the die grinder Starting to look like everything fits: Everything bolts up and grille sits where it should. Just needs some finish up and painting, should be good to go. 3 sixt9stang, JayEstes and randallzn1 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
