RowerJim Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 Looking for a header panel for my 86. Rear ended someone and busted up the front end. I have the Jeep emblem pieces so fine if those are missing. Also planning a paint job so color doesn’t matter. Most fabrication sites are giving me out of stock not available until July. I’ve checked the local junk yards for 86-89 MJs and XJs with no luck. I’m down in San Diego if that helps. I’d expect cost to be in the $80-$120 range.
ghetdjc320 Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 An option if all else fails: https://www.quadratec.com/products/72503_800_07.htm They also have most of the other grill pieces if needed.

Good find, seems the header panel goes in and out of stock pretty quick or I was doing something wrong. Had Quadratec saved for the grille and bumper caps but not header panel. Thanks again!
Limeyjeeper Posted February 11, 2023 Posted February 11, 2023 Get a junkyard panel the aftermarket ones are HORRIBLE. They don't fit properly, the screw holes in the top snap off, just had to replace mine with the OEM one. The metal trim is replaced with molded plastic. It just looks terrible.

How much should I be paying for a non cracked junkyard one
