I need the structure that's bolted to the front of the Fiero that the hood hinges bolt to. I believe it's the same structure that the air seal at the base of the hood is mounted to. Not even sure what this part is called so it's hard to search for it online. It spans most of the width of the car. Thanks!

Lou, the hinges bolt to the top of the front horns of the space frame. The attachment structure is welded as part of the space frame, not bolted on.

Well, then I guess I need someone to cut that and ship it to my body shop to finish fixing up my mess...

Sorry to butt in but I am also in the process of redoing a front end. Where are the best places to cut that most people use?

Check with the Fiero Factory in Huntsville. They replaced the front frame horns and all the metal up to the front of the tub and I could not see how they did it. I think they subbed out the job.
