This isn't another thread to bash those who fit Chev badges to Holdens. It's just that I have obtained a copy of the small catalogue of the Chev and Pontiac badges and grilles avaiable to fit to Holdens.
Would you believe there are:
Four different Chev hood badges
Eleven different boot lid badges
Four ute tailgate badges
Ten grile badges
Nine wheel centre caps
Seven different grilles
No wonder we see so many of the things around.
The interesting thing is that the grilles are assemblies made up of three parts, the basic grille, the silver cross bar and the badge. Each part is available separately, whereas our grilles are one piece plus badge.
If you wanted a plain mesh grille for a VZ Berlina, for example, part number 92162725 is what you're after. Of course, the mesh might not continue behind the cross bar. Grilles with separate parts are available for VZ sedans - SV6/SS/SV8 and similar model utes, VE (same variants), VZ Berlina and Monaro.
I am assuming here that as the parts are itemised separately, they are also available that way.
