Left over parts

This is what happens when you reinstall stuff after being apart for a year. Can anyone tell me where these parts are from? I am pretty sure they are from the front end since I had the whole front off.

Re: Left over parts

That kinda looks like motor mounts for something on top. Idk what though. Don’t look like anything on my car.

The bottom im pretty sure is what connects front bumper to fender but I think there are also some similar pieces that are used to hold the front ground effects/lip to bumper.

Not motor mounts. These are made of plastic. Also appear to be a left and a right. The bottom pic is similar to triple bolt brackets that connect the lower ground effects on both sides but I cannot see where these double bolt brackets go.

Can you point me in the direction where they go? I have the nose basically all installed and can't see where they are supposed to go. Is #1 needed to be installed? I assume #2 does.

Re: Left over parts

The top blocks are for towing with old school tow trucks, back when they used a rubber sling. Suffice to say they are no longer relevant. Those tow trucks aren't a thing anymore, and even when they were, they didn't ever use the wood spacers to keep the sling from crushing the front spoiler anyway, so they're doubly useless.

If you really want to put them back on, they bolt to the impact bumper in front, right below where the bumper bolts to the frame rails.
