GSChrist Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I been looking for a chrome grill 93 GS, do you guys know where I could find one. I've looked on ebay and seen some that i was interested in but wasn't sure if they were interchangeable with other old school GS models. Anyone got ideas?

TurboGS300 Posted May 6, 2005 Share Posted May 6, 2005 Not interchangeable and you're looking at around $300 for a chrome grille. <_< Don't do the cheap chrome stickon slats, they look horrible. On a side note, I've been looking into doing this, how many others would be interested as well at the above price? <_<(Note to admin, I'm not selling anything, just gauging interest.)

cyaltr Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Yup thats the one!! Looked at many different grills, funny how much it changes the look of the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew_McNally Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Yup thats the one!! Looked at many different grills, funny how much it changes the look of the car ← I like it - think it makes the car look a bit more agressive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think some Lexus models had a black grill and underneath was chrome <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both the 98-00 grille and the 01-05 grille is like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsvetcov Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 I re-did my 02 GS grill for less than $25. They are crome slats that fit on the vertical black slats. You cut them and attach with adhesive. It truly changes the look. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...&category=33645 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew_McNally Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 paint stripper and q-tips are even cheaper :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GSChrist Posted May 14, 2005 Author Share Posted May 14, 2005 Do you have any photos? I'm looking to do a little cosmetic work to my car. nothing too drastic. Like HID or preferrably Halo lights also. put parts for the first year 93 GS are so hard to find. I've been searching high and low on the internet.
