Know it is not a good idea to have friends help tear down for paint but I did it anyway. In putting it back together I am having a hard time figuring out where this piece goes Know it goes to the front near the headlight housing but it there anything that goes with it like a brace? The buddy that took it off might have had a beer or two to many while helping. If anyone has a pic showing this I would appreciate it.

It's the front splash screen. The top opening (left on your pict), inserts the shape of the apron on top, installed perpendicular to the car before the tower. say +- 25cm/10 inches. This is the smaller front one, a taller one is similarly installed behind the tower.

No brackets. Once engaged, you will find the holes on car that matches the two on the side.

What he said!

I think the splash shield you show is for the passenger side. I circled the holes that (I think!) the shield screws into. It takes the flanged self-tapping screws w/ 3/8" hex heads...

Thanks to all that send pics and answers. I have them in place. On to the next question in a bit. Has to do with aftermarket sail panels.
