Ugh - I see what you're dealing with and BTW those two holes between the motors in the one picture that provide access to the hood emblem nuts is a dead giveaway of front end work, if the edges are sharp its a repro header bar as originals have a curved lip around the circumference. The lower part of the headlight buckets and surround don't look bad IMO.

Also these are the suppor rods I was talking about (first pic); if you held a gun to my head I'd say your chin valence may be too low creating a larger grill gap. If you went to a lot of effort you could raise the fiberglass grill mounting tabs on the bottom some to try to center the grill vertically more, dom't know if it'd be worth the trouble though.
