Default 93 SSEi grill on 92 SE???

Do you think a 93 bonneville SSEi grill would work on a 92' SE????

Im thinking about buying on off ebay and repainting it to white , to match mine...

Would this work???

Also, anyone know approx. how much it costs to get stuff repainted ....like a grill?

You can buy them for under $100 painted thru GMPD.

well i found one on ebay..its a green one...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33645

I might go to some junkyards and check.... but right now its snowcovered....

GMPD.com says $82.55 for the grill..... which im guessing is unpainted....so..i'd rather get a used one for like $30-40...and paint it white...depending on how much it would cost to paint it white

Anyone know what i might expect to pay to get it re-painted??? ...or would it be possible for me to repaint it without any expensive equiptment???

..and say..if i found one of those grills with the honeycomb stuff...would those fit also??? in other words.. which grills (from what bonneville years/models) would fit my '92 Se??

Thanks for any and all info

ANY grills from 92-95 (SE, SSE) will fit on your car. No grills 96+ will fit. That green one will fit, but it'* not an SSEi grill.

Painting it yourself may be the way to go if you can do it. (base coat, clearcoating, sanding, rubbing compound). The paint and misc. materials wouldn't be much $$ at all.

If a shop is willing to paint it for you I don't think they'd charge you too much. Check out a body shop and ask what they'd charge you. Good luck.
