'91 turbo and N/A have the same grill?

Post by All_talk »

Tried some searching and ckecked some pics but still no firm conclusion.

Is the front grill for my '91 turbo the same as the N/A cars? The bottom edge of mine is broken and I need to find another one. I know the '90 is different, but not sure about the '91 N/A.

Anybody ever try color matching the upper/lower edge of the grill to the body color, kinda like the '92+, I wonder how it would look?

No matter how broke I am... I always seem to find two cents.

My 91 SS had the same grill as my 91 L, so I would say yes, theyre the same.

they're shaped the same but the guts are different according to model i believe. My 91L had the same grille design as my 92 turbo, but the LS's had the honeycomb style and whatnot

FWIW: The 91 FSM shows different removal instructions for the turbo vs. non-turbo grill as the clips are different (and they look different from the FSM pics as well). Of course, I don't really know whether that excludes them from interchanging or not, though. :?

The turbo grill fit on the L like it belonged there, but who knows.

All the 90-91 grills will fit, regardless of turbo or na. Same goes for the 92-94 models.

Really? I've been misinformed. Now I'm going to have to look for a completely black one or just paint mine. I'd rather get a black one.

I would paint mine too but since they're only like ten bucks I may as well buy one. Less mess that way.
