    Question 79-82 Fog Light Bar

    I have a couple questions about them:
    Can you install it with front clip on?
    Also can you make it if I have the measurement?
    Thanks for the information up front.

    i dont think you could get it on with the air dam on but i.m not sure . you could make one with the right measurements its not really that complicated looking. also watch ebay i got one for my 82 for $35. if you need some measurements let me krow i have one off so it would be easy

    There is enough room for the fog light bar to be installed with the cover & airdam on. Since you don't have one installed, I assume that you don't have the lower airdam support or the trim peice that covers the area between the airdam and core support. Those items would need to be removed to get the fog light bar in and out.

    No I dont have any pieces... What I am planing on doing is taking the 81 honey comb grill and cutting it and putting on the air dam... I still need air dam support and all thoses good pieces and I was wondering about a fog light bar. Does any one have anypictures of an 79-82 pace car or gt with the front clip off So I can see the air dam support and all thoses other peices?

    I put mine on after the dam was installed. Took me a while to find one for my 82 GLX 5.0.

    Oh man, this post just killed me. I was in the process of converting someone else’s mistake of throwing away original front clip to accommodate the Xenon air dam. I finally found the upper bumper cover and thought I just needed the lower spoiler and optionally, the fog light bar…I didn’t know there were additional support brackets and trim pieces. I’m guessing those are impossible to find these days.
