    I have received some gift certificates for VFN fiberglass and I will be ordering parts in the near future and this prompts a qustion for me. My car is a 72 Skylark Sedan and the grill is is decent shape but has some "busted teeth'. To my knowledge no one makes a 72 aftermarket grille and since I will be ordering an fiberglass bumper this creates a situation. I am thinking of making the front end look like a 70 model and using an aftermarket 1970 Skylark grille. So am I correct that no one makes a 72 grille? And is there any other differences in the front end besides the Grille and Bumper?


    Thank you ahead of time,

    Bezels and the trim on the leading edge of the hood if you use one,Are different than the 71-72's

    Ok so could I use an aftermarket 71 grille with no other mods?


    Thank you,

    There is no aftermarket 70, 71 or 72 grill, other than the recent 70 GS repro grill, which is already sold out.
