Radiator core support
 
1 Attachment(s)
Alright fellas, and ladies, I need some good sound advice...My radiator support, at the bottom, looks to be held on by some rubber (worn out) cushions. The steel that attaches them are very rusted out. My question is...can I just replace said steel with a fab job, or can I purchase them without buying the whole front support, as mine appears to be in pretty good shape. Thanks for any and all help!

This is the top of the inner fender. The little support up there is gone also.

If you have the skills and equipment to fabricate your patch pieces and weld them in, I say go for it. That is what I would do and have done. If you don't have the means to fabricate the patch piece, you can cut the needed piece from a donor radiator support and inner fender.
