This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration.

    I dont know what this peice is called but it sits behind the grill and helps fill the gap by the headlight bezel. It is plastic on my car. I need one for the drivers side. It is 4 inches or so and curved. ED K

    I'm pretty darn sure Joe is right, it is 68 only. I have a nice set packed away, but they will go on my car one of these days, doesn't have any currently. In 69 they are part of the grille itself, not a separate piece. Mike, I didn't know 70-72 had them as separate parts? I wonder if I have a pic here... nope, must have deleted it.

    that mounting hole will not be a problem. I can add a squeeze plate on top of that and it would be good to go. Shoot me a price ( low ) and we would be in business. Thanks ED

    Ed & Gary, I found an extra one that I had forgotten about. It is in good shape, nothing broken, and is black. Looks like Gary's picture. Is that the driver side cup? I haven't seen one on a car, so I'm not sure what the attachment point is. # on the cup is 1384265.

    Ed, mine is the same as Gary's, except for no breaks. I would guess he knows that it is driver side or passenger side. I can't tell myself, without getting at my grille, or my car to figure it out. Haven't had these on my car since I bought it.
