1998 Front Grill


Recommended Posts

I want to change the Front Grill on my 1998 GS 400 to a Chrome one. Will the Chrome Grill from the 2001 and newer GS's be a Straight fit or do i have to find an aftermarket Grill. Also i love the New giant "L" on the 2006 model. Would the 2006 grill fit the 1998 or not?

Any Info would help.

A few bits of info for you. :)

- The 01-05 grille bolts right on.

- The 06 ones do not.

- The 01-05 grilles are NOT chrome

- The 02-03 GS300 SportDesign grille is shaped like the 01-05 grille and is partially chromed.

- The 98-00 and 01+ grilles are chrome underneath the black paint. With a little work and one of various paint removal methods, you can make these grilles chrome.

- The L emblem in the 98-00, 01-05, 06+ grilles are all different sizes and are not interchangeable.

Thanks for the info.

Has anyone tried taking the paint off the grille? If so, did it turn out and what did you use?

Do you think this would work on my rims too? :D
