    Mounting brackets for early IS lip?

    Alright, so I have an 87 IS, and the front lip has always sagged a fair amount since I bought the car. One of the mounting brackets looks pretty mangled, I am looking for a template so I can bend up some new ones, and think I had read somewhere that such a template exists somewhere. Anybody have a copy or know where I can find it? Thanks.

    You could just buy them...

    Otherwise your best bet is probably to find an unbroken one to use as your base.

      Thanks for the link, but $150 for 3 little brackets is just ubsurd. I will most likely just have to use whichever one is in the best shape and tweak it from there.

        I made brackets using some spare metal drywall studs I had laying around. ghetto, but works great.
