78-79 headers interchange. 80-81 headers interchange, I believe. The 1980 and 1981 grille and headlight doors are year-unique, though.

Goodmark makes repops check RockAuto for other panels

Headlight bezels and front grills are no longer made for the 80

1980 is an unfortunate year as the aftermarket makes 78-79 and 81-83 spare parts, but for some unexplainable reason, no repro 'new' headlight doors, marker lenses or grilles. I think the header panels from 1980 and 1981 may be interchangeable, and I have some spare 1980 parts, but they aren't shiny new.

Greetings Pit crew & all; Welcome to the best forum on the internet! Please fill out your bio, then we'll all know where you're from & you won't have to keep re posting very time someone asks. If you look to the right side of you-our posts you will see that info block. And note I'm from Southern Wisconsin 7 miles from Illinois boarder I-90. I have a hood in perfect condition med Bronze, wrong color & I'm not sure I even want to part with it? I also have a header panel off a 79 complete with lights, lens & grill. And it is silver, some what scuffed, side marker lens are good. But the plastic chrome is rough. And I'm not sure that a 79 header will except your 80 grill? At least I'm a drivable distance, guessing 700 miles give or take. Good luck, Ole' Bob.

Always have trouble navigating new sites. Can't find the bio box.

Welcome! Definitely could have been worse.. Glad it wasn't.
I'm on the Grand Prix side of things, but I'm sure the other Malibu guys will point you in the right direction.

Thanks, it's definitely bad enough. I would have rather been driving my 2014 F-250. Before I got the Malibu I had a 78' Grand Am. Sweet car. Any Grand Am's on here?

Looks like you got really lucky if it was a big *ss deer.

Thanks, you should see the GOOD side. I can't find the bio box to list what state I'm in. (Ohio)
