Decided to replace my worn and broken front Air Dam on my '79. Ordered and recieved the new part. When I went to remove the eight lower bolts that are in the clips on the fiberglass lip all the bolts either broke or wouldn't move due to heavy rust! I ended up cutting the plastic thing off in order NOT to damage the fiberglass lip.
How should I go about removing these rusted bolts? This is not an area where there is a lot of room to work.
I have been told to either drill out the bolts with a drill bit or use a rotary hand tool and cut off the heads of the bolt and pry open the clips.
Any suggestions out there. Who has done this project before?
Thanks in advance for any help. Doesn't look like too major a deal, but just don't want to make it worst.
