    I think I have an extra 68 that is pretty nice. No 69's.

    Just in case you weren't aware, you would also need a 68 grille to use with a 68 surround. 68/69 grilles and surrounds do not mix-n-match.

    oh really? i thought they did. cause my gs has a 68 surround (missing the center bar) but my grill has a spot where the center bar should be... is that the only issue or do they not mount up at all?

    69 grille surround

    Hey Chromag. . .I have a 69 grille surround. Its nice, no real bad pitting, no cracks, no digs, and I "believe" all the mounting studs are intact. Its a bit dull so it should be rechromed. $125 includes shipping to lower 48. :TU: If u send me your direct email address I'll forward you a few pix! :TU: OR, if you have a 68 GS, and would rather install a good 68 Grille to match the grille surround you already have, I have one of those too! :laugh: Wheelz, Tampa Bay

    Maybe they will physically go together, but it wouldn't look so great without the middle horizontal bar to go across the front of that mounting area on the 69 grille. I've never tried to mount 68 surround/69 grille, but I've only seen comments here that you can't combine different years with 68/69. I just don't think it would look very good.

    69 grille surround/ or 68 grille?

    Mr Chromag. . (BTW a NAME would be nice!) I will dig-out the 69 grille surround for you and shoot a few pix. However, . .would you rather have a 68 grille to match the 68 grille surround you already have? :Do No: I have a decent 68 grille that I may trade for your 69 grille? :TU: . . .just a thought.

    SO, uh Paul!?

    Hey Paul. My wife made me sleep on the couch last night. . I set your 69 grille surround on HER side of the bed yesterday when you said you had to "THINK ABOUT IT". well, she carefully moved it to MY side, and since I didn;t want to damage the thing, I left it there all night. Imagine this. .two grils in one mans bed and HE sleeps on the couch. .! :Dou: :laugh: So, DO YOU WANT it er not?? I'll tuck it away back in my STUFFS area if you don't. It will be nice to have my side of the bed back so I can get a good night sleep again. :beer Wheelz, Tampa Bay
