I just took mine off (also an '89) a couple weeks ago to repaint. It attaches with screws that are visible looking up from under the metal trim but you have to remove the headlight bezels and grill to get to them. I just went out and double checked and that metal header is one piece all the way across. It slips into the side marker trim on the right and left.
So, it looks like you need to order up a new header piece and chrome side marker housings (or use your old, black side marker housings).

I'll order a header and post pictures after I get it installed.
Hmmm, except all the headers I've seen are painted. No chrome strip. Arrrghhh!
