Could anyone tell me if a grille with turn signals in the grill will fit a 72 without changing fenders and hood?? If i use my stock grille brackets?

That depend on if you are talking about a 67-68 or a 69-70.

A 69-70 will fit. Use the brackets on the 69-70. If you want it to look right, you need to change the bumper also.

If you are talking about a 67-68, then the fenders, hood and radiator supprt need to be changed. Basically the whole front clip.

I am not sure if they are the same brackets. Maybe someone else can tell you for sure. It is possible they will work.

According to the LMC catalog, the left and right brackets are the same part number but the center is different from 69-70 to a 71-72.

Hope this helps.
