i got it off ebay for cheap and didnt even notice that the pic was a different kind...i thought they were interchangeable...i like the little middle part better then the 95-96 ones...they are boring and ugly...the 97-98 with the mesh is cool...oh well...anyone want a teal colored(same color as my car) 97-98 grill for $20 including shipping to anywhere in the US????

Or cut all the slots and keep just the outline and put some nice mesh grill.
If you want something strong, get some good rubber epoxy from a body paint shop. It's stronger and never crack.
This is how I got rid of it.

I'm wondering if JUST the black part of the grill can be swapped.Not the plastic border just the black stuff. It has screws holding it on the mold and in theory they are the same size but different styles.
