Not to muddy the waters completely...but with regard to the inner grille for 69-70, what is reproduced is really a mash up of what came from the factory. It looks more like a 69 from a distance because it is solid silver/argent. But it does have MOST OF the raised bars embossed on the 70s. So it's sorta cast for a '70 and sorta colored like a '69.

Here's a post from our build thread that illustrates the repro version more closely:

Go to the whole thread to see how we made it look like a 1970.
