Icon2 Rad support bolt on Q

Hey guys, Have a question about bolting on the top part of the rad support.
My car was hit a couple years ago on driver side slightly, bent in the upper rad support and never was the same since and had a slant to the headlight.

If i was able to just re attach the upper portion of the support by bolting it up near the fender bolts, and creating a bracket from the bottom to the upper support ( peice beside the rad ) should i be fine with this ?


- not my car - upper rad support



- middle piece -

Thoughts/ comments / why or why not.. Welcomed. Thanks

I'm not sure I can make sense of what you're saying, but the radiator support is not a "bolt in" part. It requires welding.

My apoligies on that...

The upper part where the hoodlatch is on.. I was going to break the welds off on the sides and bolt a new (upper support) where the headlights bolt onto.



And going to create a new support from the lower to upper bar (pic 2) which is beside the radiator.

if that makes sense
