What are these???

[Chris McDade]

Does anyone know what these are for? Im thinking the interior maybe headliner as it's the only thing left I need to put back in the car. They where with the car when I bought it. I've never seen them before.

Thanks,

Hmmm, they kinda look like the interior framing of front filler panels, with all the flexible material missing.
Never seen anything inside that looks like that tho.
Stumper for sure.

It is the metal framework for the front bumper fillers.

Hummmmm, I put some fiberglass one on the front and I didn't use these. They went on good. Are these for the factory one's only?

Thanks,

Blow this up and look at number 31.

OK, they look like some kind of support for the fillers. Do you guys normally re use these when you replace the front fillers????

Thanks

x2 for sure. I just looked at mine the other day when I pulled the front bumper filler. Yes, you re-use them when you order a new filler. You'll get the new rubber filler, but have to staple the frame (pictured) to the new filler.

That's weird, cause when I replaced them on both of my old cars, the metal backing framing was already attached to my GM front bumper fillers. All I had to do was have them painted and install them without any other hassles. All the metal really does is help support the headlight bezel and keep the bumper fillers from deforming at speed.
