I am replacing the front clip of my car just bought. It came with damage but needs the front support piece that the radiator and everything hooks to. I have everything needed pulled besides this and hood. It is bent in there and damaged the radiator, fan head light, and A/C stuff. Is there an easy way to replace this part or what do i need to do to replace it? I am just a little stumped. Doing the work my self and appreciate any help.

Looking at the body section it says that the core support is a welded on part, not bolted on like many supports are. However, there are no breakdowns or parts drawings that actually show the support.
Think you could take a few pictures of the support and the ends where it attaches and post them here? That might make it easier to tell which way it has to come off.
