EuroDat Posted January 22, 2017 Share #14 Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) You have the wrong 240Z grille for your 240Z. Yes they are different. You have one with the short middle horizontal bar and you should have the one with four long bars at the top and three middle length bars. That grille has the vertical locating tabs on the outer lower mount. You can see them in my photos. The second type is a little difficult to see clearly because a 280Z grille is laying on top. I can post some better photos of the two ypes later. I have the brackets if you want them. Just drill out the rivits and replace the bottom mounts.

EuroDat Posted January 31, 2017 Share #21 Posted January 31, 2017 You should be able to drill out the rivits and fit the correct bracket for your situation. The rivit holes should line up. I would try aluminium rivits because the vertical bars are aluminium and hard steel can distort the hole. And now some pictures of the finished job;) Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/topic/54804-grille-tabs-on-body/?page=2#findComment-511469 Share on other sites More sharing options...
