    Okay, I'm suffering from a substantial brain fart.
    What is the ***y bar between the bumperettes called and anyone know where I can find a used one?
    I'm not looking for the extra outside bumper garnish, just the centre bar an I'm damned if i can remember what they're called. :eek:

    "Overrides" rings a bell, but I haven't seen the center one before. Might try Eckler's for a repop.

    I'm not certain it really has a name... I think it's just part of the accessory bumper over rider package. Not even sure if it was a factory accessory or a dealer only..

    when stumped, it's a whatchamacallit. Can't go wrong. (By the way, as others stated, it's a Grill guard also referred to by some as a Overrider).
