Nice work! Crazy shape to create. Core support is done, trial mount it this wknd. Core support and template. Holes in, cutouts made (hose access). Scuff washers, brass sheet material. End mounts are steel/aluminum sandwich, steel plate welds onto sheet metal, support bolts to aluminum piece.
Mock up for position, will go just under the grill lip. 14 mm thru slugs for anti- smash purposes. 😋 Notice the slightly mashed tow hook & mount. Not worth fixin, onward we go! Old mount is welded to the tow hook plate, cut off angled portion, weld new mounts to get the fit i want.
