Where to find mounts

The mount that slips inside ths front spoiler where it wraps around the fender and attaches to the three holes at the bottom is a strip of metal with three threaded studs made into it has broke on mine ( 1986). I bought one for the other side a few years ago but tried to contact the company i got it from and they apparently are not in business any longer. Anyone know where to buy these?
Thanks

Keep the broken or rusty pieces, any welding or machine shop can easily make new ones.
Don't know of any available currently.

I believe classic industries has them, but they're around $30 apiece. I just ground out the studs and replaced them with 1/4-20 carriage bolts and welded them in. 60c vs $60.
