Default Can you help me identifying this part?

There is a metallic reinforcement part attached to the fiberglass at the front of the car. It's located between the headlight and the hood, on the underside of the body.

Is that part sold by some of the online stores? Can I get that part from Eckler's corvettes, Willcox, etc?

This is the picture of what I'm looking for:

neither your post or your profile list the year of your car but the link below will point you in the right direction

Thanks for that guys, I have a '75 coupe so I guess the part must be this one:

That picture seems to have another smaller piece of metal, right? Is that a stock part in bad shape or a dirty fix done in the past?

these go on each end as well, you might need them.

you need a steady hand with the cut off wheel , the glass is thin there .

Certainly looks like it time to replace
