    Might have a decent grill, bumpers are scarce, how bad is the valence?
    The ol lady's folks live in Sperry, might have to deliver.

    If you have a grill with the lights in it, you don't have to worry about the little tabs on the bottom of the grill. The lights will hold the grill fine, at least mine does. Still need to have the mounts on the hood latch and at the headlight ends.

    Grille mounting tab can be epoxy glued back on with aluminum enforcement under the tab. JB Weld can fill the cracks.
