Re: [Chevelle-list] 72 N.O.S grill
I don't know how close a 72 grill is to a 71, but I have 3 grills, and One has several cracks (junk grill) and one is near perfect, and one has 2 cracks. If you are interested in those grills, email me offline at [EMAIL PROTECTED]. We'll work something out. I can take pictures for you too if you would like. :-) Chad - Original Message - From: Tom Tomlinson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 28, 2003 8:03 PM Subject: RE: [Chevelle-list] 72 N.O.S grill Since we are on the subject of grills, I'd like to repair a missing piece on my '71 Malibu grill.

Re: [Chevelle-list] 72 N.O.S grill
Diane I agree, paint it, especially if you have it out of the car. Find the correct finish, try to clean the spots just in case it is something that will eat through the paint. They come out very well and no one will know unless you tell them. Believe me, a lot of cars at shows have thier grill repainted and no one is the wiser. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

RE: [Chevelle-list] 72 N.O.S grill
We sell the repro ones for about $89 and they look great. Personally I would not accept a NOS piece that is damaged, especially for $100.

RE: [Chevelle-list] 72 N.O.S grill
It's NOS and it’s pitted? That sucks. I assumed it was used.
