Default C5 Corvette 1997 - 2004 Radiator Support
I have a 2004 ZO6 which did not have a C5 Corvette 1997 - 2004 Radiator Support when I bought it.

I found one but all the fasteners and plastic fittings were missing.

Anyone have a clue where to buy the fasteners for this piece.

Thank you.

If youre missing that, how is the car not overheating? That is the shroud around the radiator that directs air through the radiator, it doesnt really hold it in place. Do you have a picture of the area missing on your car?

I've had this car for four years and never overheated.

I bought this shroud to put back in but the hardware and fasteners are all missing. I don't have a picture.
