GFX repair on the cheap
The GFX were damaged on my 85 Trans am, no visual issues, all the damage was underneath where it meets the black pieces and the air dam. replacements are a bit expensive and finding parts locally is a pain in the ***. the hardware and metal bars cost me around 15$, took me around an hour to get the GFX done. i still have to mock the air dam up and fit some metal brackets to it. it dosent look as good as a replacement, but it cost a bit less and should get the job done .

Re: GFX repair on the cheap
ended up getting everything set up and semi lined up, the brackets from the air dam need to be tweaked to better support the GFX. from the side and front you cant even tell the stuff is there, when your under the car you can definitely tell, but i dont think most people will ever see that. thanks for taking a look, let me know if you have any suggestions.
