Thats what I `ve found out, not thru myself but other cars that I have seen over the years, the make braziling<sp> repos that don`t fit no matter what you do, you can tell them by the way they are made the bars are not part of the grille but added into it( stamped) if I remember at both ends center and sides of the upright sections. The guy I bought this from just replace his so he said with a NOS grille, wonder what he paid..... The only other choice would be a fink grille, but that is more of a billet look to me as opposed to the stock look. Mine is the standard not the deluxe grille. There was one out there last year with about four inches of the bottom missing and he wanted $200.
