Anyone have the steel chrome grille from LMC?

Where do you recommend purchasing a grille from? It's my understanding that different vendors have different quality levels. True?

Please post some pics and give your feed back. I currently have a billet grille but want to factory with the chrome bezel.

although all vendors will only provide the black paint around the headlight buckets, kepe in mind that 71's actually had a black strip around the entire grille surround also. Would have to be added to be original (looking) for a 71. 1st is 72, 2nd is 71.

You can jut add the factor inner grille and keep your chrome outer grille and headlight buckets. You can get a reproduction inner grille in a grey or chrome finish from places like classic industries, LMC, classic heartbeat, ect..

Mine is not chrome and has a little scratch in it. (Call it anal or ocd)

Shes about 80% there. Last piece is to move the gas tank and maybe at AC. Running gear is brand new feont to back.
