Grille Issues Still!

[54Rich]

OK, Stupid as this sounds I still can't figure out what is going on with my grille! Of course never seeing a good one might have somthing to do with it

Anyhow, got the car, grille flaps in the wind, springs are missing.

Get springs, however, nothing to hook them to.

Get piece that's supposed to rivit to the main grille, however, can't figure how to do it.

Somthings still missing/broken

I'm about ready to get the duct tape out

Help

Thanks,

Rich

Pictures are looking at the bottom of the grille.

after spending a few hours trying to figure it all out myself, i finally just gave up and drilled a hole on each side of the bumper support and zip tied it using the holes on the botom of the front of the grill, however i wasnt to phased by drilling holes since as it is, my car is pretty cut up....

Not 100% sure, but like "GN ERGY" says in the next post, you're missing the piece that goes between the flat piece you already have ( which is correct) and the bottom of the grille...As for the springs, they hook to the small groove in each corner of that flat piece you have and to an existing hole on the top of the bumper reinforcement. Hope this helps...

There is still a piece missing off the bottom of your grill. Here are 2 pics of the bottom of my grill I have off my GN.

Is the missing piece yet another seperate part or is it a molded piece of the grille?

Thanks for the quick responses.

By looking at the pictures of your grille, there is some kind of flat groove under the lower edge of it...I'm pretty sure that is where your missing part should attach to the grille. However, I'm afraid this part wasn't sold separately and came with the grille!... ...You have the grille itself and the flat part to which the springs attach, but you're missing the part that goes in-between these two...Maybe you could fabricate one...or look in junk yards...When looking for this particular piece, all Regals should be the same, not just GN's...
