    WTB or trade 88 cv bumper trim

    So my 88 CV has a front license plate mount that I have no purpose for. Looks like it's just the center piece of trim on the bumper, looking for a non-plate bracketed center section bumper trim.

    Thanks,
    Don

    I don't think I've ever seen an 88-91 without the front bracket. Good luck.

      Crap, that's not what I wanted to hear! I'll keep searching, worst case scenario, it's fabrication time!

        If nothing else, put some obnoxious sign plate up front

          Looks like such a thing may exist.

              I have one. It will not meet up with the other strips, like in the google picture. Maybe they shrink? E-mail me direct. veightpete@gmail.com

                There were actually other pictures I found but I thought that was the best looking picture. I think I have seen them since front plates are not required in Michigan, but WagonMan is right, they always seem to have a bit of a gap between sections.
                Even the picture I posted isn't exactly flush, but better than what I recall seeing in person.

                edit:
                Sly, since the OP may take the one WagonMan is offering, someone around here (or any other state that does not require front plates) may be able to score one in the local yards.
