82-83 Firebird front spat mounting hardware
When I bought my 82 T/A the front spats/gfx (in front of front wheels) were missing for some reason.
Located a set and now I need all the mounting screws and clips.
I also need the metal bar with two studs that goes into the bottom of the fender.
Does anyone have an exploded diagram of this area? Part numbers?
Also not sure what air deflectors are supposed to be under there. One is zip tied up but not sure if that was after the spats were removed or not!
I'll post pics up later to clarify what I mean.

Those metal mounting bars are going to be tough to find as they rust out. If you are handy with a welder you can make them up fairly easily with a flat piece of metal and a couple of studs. They are very simple. As far as the rest, I wish I had taken some pics as I used all new hardware when I reassembled mine.

I have one of the mounting bars so I at least know what to look for! I could make one but I really want to keep this car 100% factory if I can.
Wonder if those bars are the same for any other gfx used over the 82-92 years? I know I've seen them before.
If you have any under shots of the finished product that'd help a bunch! Not sure what's supposed to be under there and such.
Beautiful car btw!
