Tony, I could have used your expertise at bending metal rods at multiple angles. Mounting that base plate on the car was not fun. You have to drill holes through the front frame rails to mount the base plate. Three of the holes are blind holes, inside the hollow part of the frame. They give you 3 nut plates with a heavy wire welded to them. You have to fish it up through a hole in the bottom of the frame about a foot and half away from the bolt hole.

Took longer than I thought, doesn't it always. I was probably being too fussy about getting it lined up to the exact same spot on both sides. Have to finish trimming one of the air dams to fit around it then finish putting the front end back on.
