Like the others I'm not trying to be rude, but I agree with others that this might not be a orignal GM grill. I have always been told and seen that the black paint on the center bar of the orignal grill continued in two horizontal lines into the headlight cutouts, and that the aftermarket grills had the black paint stopped by a vertical black line before the headlight like yours pictured here. Also, I sold a perfect 69 grill with a perfect uncracked inner, headlight bezels, turn signal lenses and housings for $600 after it was on the board for a week or two. Just my $.02
