We had a four-wheeler when I was a kid that the previous owners had done this with. We called it Frank, short for Frankenstein. Frank was fast as hell.

Did that on my shitcan 2004 civic while in college. Did not want to pay 400+ for a new front end when I can use a hole punch with a few zipties
It’s a good cheap repair for a beater car. I’ve done it many times.
If it’s stupid and it works it’s not stupid
Looks good to me … cost of living too high and this does the job. If it don’t bother the owner it don’t bother me either
Replacements are expensive zip ties are cheap.
Solid repair for the time being
