Hey guys some beautiful work here! on the topic of this, does anyone know where I can find a replacement bracket that holds the airbox to the engine bay?

Thank you for comment and post.

If it is something standard that I am missing then I would say yes.

Can you post pictures so I can spot the difference and then perhaps ping me directly what you have and how much to post to Sydney

Many thanks

David

Finally got my hands on an airbox bracket thanks to coupe king.

Could anybody be so kind as to take a measurment of some sort so I can make sure it is welded in the exact location?
Maybe the distance in Z from the frame rail?

I know it looks fairly obvious, but would be good to have something exact to give to the body shop!

Also, this parts seems to just have two spot welds? Is there seam sealer or something else between the plate and fender?

Thanks!

@sfdon,

Can you measure the distance from the top of the bracket to the center point on the inner fender tip? I did this in April with the Knives Out car but I can’t find my numbers.

Thanks for the pics, guys. It’s enough to go off.
Im looking for a measurement like this if anyone gets a chance

I’m on the road- back later

LOL that makes way more sense. I didn’t do that because it requires airbox removal.
