Default What are you using for a Center Grille

Anyone know where I can get a center grill for my 79. I would love a Billet Grille set in polished aluminum to replace all three. But does anyone make them???? What else can I do??"?

Can you show pic's of different front grille's
Thanks
Jim

i'm pretty sure unless you have removed the steel impact bar behind the eurathane nose even if there was an opening behind the license plate recess it would just expose a big steel plate.

I guess what I'm saying is - center grille isnt an option for those of us with the tupperware nose.

Ecklers sells a plastic on (black) that bolts up to the license plate frame. But I think it sticks out too much & looks fake. So I was asking if anyone had a better idea & PIC of a center piece for the C3
Thanks
