Grill question.

[YBNORML]

I have 99' CCSB, it currently has the chrome Chevy grill I am planning on changing it over to a painted GMC version.

There is a painted filler between the top of the bumper and the bottom of the grill, does anyone know if they are interchangeable between the Chev/GMC?

If your GMC grille is 94+, you won't need to change it. They fillers are the same to my knowledge. The 88-93 grilles do not use one and they use different bumper brackets (bumpers are the same).

When in doubt, refer to a parts catalog

88-93 is one style
94-99 is another. Remember in 99 there was OBS and NBS

The only grille parts that don't interchange between Chevy and GMC are the sidemarker lenses (as long as you're sticking with the '94-'99 GMC).

No.... In 1999, 2000, 2001, & 2002 there are GMT-400 and GMT-800.

That's funny, I thought the point of this place is to ask and respond to questions.
Telling me to look at a catalogue defeats the purpose.

That much I did Know, when I got the grill I made sure to get all the lenses with it.

Well the reason I said that was not to discourage questions. However there are plenty of people that will ask rather than research just cause they are lazy. No rather the reason was that you have correct information. You should have noticed by now you can get 8 different answers to a question that usually only has one correct one.

The other reason I said that was sometimes you (anyone) could be in a relative hurry and can't always wait for the CORRECT answer.

If that's not a good enough explanation, I'm sorry for trying to point you in a direction that gives you another source of information. Hopefully you could use a parts catalog for other types of questions pertaining to body parts and such.
