    Is the radiator support welded to the rest of the chassis?

    Or could I remove it with just bolts? Mine is kinda bent up, while I have the oppurtunity, I'd like to fix it. I can't weld or un-weld anything though.

    you can source a new radiator support (the entire assembly), but i can't imagine what's involved in re-fitting it into your car.. pretty much it looks welded, pop rivoted.. hard to replace. i could be dead wrong, but i just say take a sledge to it or maybe even a cheater bar.. see if it can be 'pursuaded'. i remember ronnie, deadlyprotege93 from pclub had some major front end damage and was looking to get this replaced.. for him.. it was mostly a lost cause . good luck
    peace

      Yeah I can get the entire thing for cheap.. but if it's held in other than bolts... oh well! Out of my range of experience
