    My trunk is assembled and functional, but I have these parts left over. Can someone tell me what they are for? A picture would help.

    Do you have a grabber wing? If so that is the retainers. If not I'll be interested in them for extras.

    Grabber wing? Is this where a grabber wing goes? I f so, I do not plan to use the rubber gasket and will attached the "wing" directly since it looks cleaner that way to me (& seal the bolts). If nobody tells me that is a mistake, I can part with these. I'll give it a few days. Otherwise, I have a stockpile of valuable "junk" I want to bring to the MCCI 2016 roundup, gotta clean up the garage for the wife.

    This was the spacers to go on the studs of the spoiler to have a flat surface for the nut. On the extra parts do you have a spare front valance for a 71?

    Those are the retainers to hold the spoiler on to the trunk lid. What is holding it on now?

    Ahhhh, now I understand. We used 3M trim adhesive tape to attach the spoiler since we got much better lines. The bolted attachment caused some uneven alignment. So, I will need to put these on loosely as a backup in case the adhesive lets loose. Thanks, they are not available!

    Extra Parts> No, I do not. I don't really have much, maybe I'll post what I have sometime in the future.
