they are cheaper besides i'd rather not buy another thirdgen grill (mine is missing ) just to cut and install a more expensive insert. make more sense to me to cut this one thats 50 bucks or so if its large enough

fyi this is for an 86 z28

hum.. throw a measuring tape on a 4th gen and see how close in size the openings are.. that and you'll have to look at the angle where is it bent in half to see if it's similar.

also I know of a new trendz billet grill for sale on another camaro board.. if I recall the guy wants 1/2 price of new for it. PM me if your interested and I'll try look it up again.
