Got the air dam mounted.

I hope to get my air dam installed today and post a photo. Mike

I agree. More about protection than look.

Grant Got my new 7/8” front bar mounted. I didn’t have enough room to slide the bar over far enough to get the other side in, but I didn’t have any trouble raising the bracket up. Held the end bolts with a needle nose vice grip. Hardest part was getting the new brackets bent into shape so the holes would line up. is there a final verdict in swapping for the shorter steering arms? People happy with the results? Mike

Maybe I could find a used rusty one and paint it black.

I haven’t checked but I’m guessing factory grilles are pretty scarce?

I agree with the black for the grille. Lots of options for materials out there.

No holes and no grille. 3 options - try and find a factory grille, build a grille, or leave it out.

My 83 has no grille and I don’t see how one would be attached. Parts book isn’t much help. Looks like lots of options on materials. I’ve painted the air dam I got from Michael Phillips and was considering fabricating a grille as I was flopping around on the floor installing that. Mike

Anyone have any experience with this company and their grille material? https://www.customcargrills.com/index.asp

Thanks Grant, I’m going to give that a try here in the next week or so. Mike

I’m going to swap out my sway bars. Let us know if you have any tips on the installation. Mike

I have mine from the 80’s, still in its plastic wrap, decades before I got my car. Mike

A guy told me he put a screw in that hole to keep the bushing from “walking” out. Don’t know if that is a thing, mine haven’t moved. Mike
