69 OE Grille or A/M?
« on: January 29, 2015, 02:48:14 PM »
I've been trying to figure out if this grill is OE or A/M. Any thoughts? I can get it for a real good price if it's OE. I don't want to shell out the funds if it's A/M. The seller said it's black molded plastic also. Thanks.

Here's a few more pics of the back of the grille. Is it original or a/m? It looks like it has the mold realease pins. A/M doesn't have that right? Would you take a chance on it for the right price?

Hawk the part number for non RS black grille is 3957062 I can't remember if it's molded on the factory one's or not. I'd look it over for one.

Thanks Vince. Unfortunately the part number isn't molded into the factory grille.
