My bumper grills just came in the mail. they mount differently than the old ones. I need some help gettting this mounted. As you can see from the picture there are no holes through the grill, so the bolts need to be secured from the back and screw into the grill. I can reach maybe 2 of 6 screws.
My idea to make this job easier would be to mount strong magnets on both the bumper and the grill. These magnets will obviously need to be strong and thin so it looks good. Does any one else have any other ideas? I will not remove the entire nose of the car to install these, and theres a good chance they will need to come off eventually to get painted when I'm ready.
Im actually disappointed in this site. When i owned my 85 monte carlo the G body threads were full of helpful people. ...I guess I should start looking for a new site.
Here's an idea. What about using those door panel clips that go in one way but do not come back out easily? Attach the plastic piece to the grille and push it into a hole in the bumper cover tabs the original screws go through.
