Evan,
Yes, that's my '76 Spider. I cut a big "notch" in the front bumper, allowing use of an older style grille. Both front and rear mounts were modified so the bumpers could be retracted and fit closer to the body. I did this around 15 years ago, but later changed to stainless bumpers. Use "search" to look for posts about bumpers, and there are several pictures illustrating how I cut the front bumper. There are other ways to fit a grille; at least one owner cut the front bumper completely in two to fit the old grille.

Thanks much,
Evan
