428ratkiller,
When I found one on the '78 Grand Am I scrapped out (I kept the core support and the AC box exhaust head shield) I did some research. I saw somewhere that only about 5% of all BOP from '78 to ? came with them. Some aluminum supports (not all) came with the aluminum "X" brace for the radiator openning. Some also came with the even rarer 46" long chin spoiler. My core support came with the aluminum "X" brace and the 46"spoiler (I don't know why other then the GA was loaded with options). Oh, not all aluminum core supports came with the stamped letter "A" and the weight savings was about 9 pounds (22lbs. to 13lbs.).
As far as what they are worth, I've seen people say they bought some from local yards for as low as $50.00 and some people have said they've sold them for as much as $350.00 (I'm repeating what I've seen on the other forums I belong to).
