i have a 68 RS SS camaro that I am finally starting work on . . .

I am going to purchase a new center grill since mine is broken.

I saw two listed . . . one is black and the other it has silver chrome accent on it and says it should have chrome on the ribs??

Mine does not have that on it. Any help here??

Thanks
Tim

the factory 68 rs grilles had silver on the raised horizontal lines. mine had been painted all black at one time, but you can still see a little silver showing through in places. i've been curious as to how the repro's look.

My car was an early build first week in November and came with the finned SS hood and the bumble bee stripe on the front of the car. Could it have come with the black grill as well??

Thanks for all the help thus far.
