    In the lower valance? I did mine. I can help out... It kind of depends on what type of bar/mounts he's using. That makes the biggest difference in the install.

    Here's what she used to look like before the bumper...

    Here's one version. Kind of gives you an idea. You can also mount it on the two post that comes out.

    Did I miss something here on the UCA bolts? Don't they come from the factory to be removed forward thru the radiator support? There are slots in the rad support and grille specifically for the bolts to slide thru. Even after I replaced my rad support the UCA bolts slid right thru. Hmmm.

    Yeah, RIP GC!

    Anyone have tips on finding a part-time job for a mechanical engineering student? I've not had much luck with finding any drafting gigs.. I don't have the office experience firms are looking for. I have the skills though. Any tips or leads appreciated.
