My 71' Cuda grille:

Needs a piece put back on.
Fabricate a piece? Get lucky finding one?

Suggestions please on how to re-do.
Can a specialty plastic shop fab a piece?

Would prefer ideas on DIY vs. send out.

It's junk wrap it up I'll take it LOL. That is a common and easy repair. Find the piece and have it repaired.

you can get some flat abs sheet, then make patterns, heat, cut, bend, shape, weld. that was the first generation method of repair when i was doing them commercaally if/when i could not find good used ones...

Then, I went to a 3d scanned cad file and had them 3d printed, not cheap, but saved time... so at shop rate it was about a wash, but made a lot better repair.
