Default Need pics ASAP!

Need a pic of the rear bumper support of a firebird or formula, the eggcrate looking part of it. I'm getting ready to put on my formy rear bumper and the support is different, need to see if I can mod it to work properly. TIA

Sorry man, wish I would've known sooner! I just changed min eover about 2 weeks ago. Take a pic of yours and I can tell you what you need to chop.

I know I need to trim the 2 tabs in the middle but I'm not sure how much to chop at the corners.

I could take mine off and take a pic....but that would be alot of work BTW Struts are on their way.

This site has diagrams of stuff which I found helpful when looking up parts. I came up with this...not sure if it will help or not

Thanks ...and thanks for the great hatch . I wish I had more pics to post but I'm not happy with the photos I took yesterday and now I cant drive the car. I'm so sick of throwing bottle after bottle after bottle into the P/S reservoir just to go to work or go on a short trip to take pics that it's going to sit till Tim has time to install the p/s rack we just got.

On another note glad you got the piece cut that you needed to
