Inner Grille/Outer Grille Shell Questions

I bought a new inner grille and outer grill shell and a pair of used brackets that are painted and ready to be installed. Where do I find the large rivets that attach the brackets to the grill and also the screws and plastic anchors that hold the inner grill to the grill shell ? I would like to assemble these as soon as I can .
Thanks John

I used some of these stainless rivet screws in place of the pop rivets a lot of vendors sell with their kits. They work and look great. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Chevy-grille...sories&vxp=mtr

Re: Inner Grille/Outer Grille Shell Questions

I'll second that. The rivet bolts are the way to go! Very easy to install and can be removed and reinstalled at any time if needed.

If you ever tried to POUND in some original type rivets without destroying the part, you'll appreciated these!

Re: Inner Grille/Outer Grille Shell Questions

learn to read descriptions// the $10 is for 25

hardware stores around here carry them in different sizes and no need to pay shipping

Re: Inner Grille/Outer Grille Shell Questions

Are these screw type rivets still available? Not much is coming up when I search online.

Thanks,
Ray

Thanks Jim,
I remember you posted about these years back. I looked at the old EBay links that you had posted and nothing showed up.

I will place an order for a set.

Thanks,
Ray

Re: Inner Grille/Outer Grille Shell Questions

If someone needs an inner to outer grill install kit let me know. I have the plastic clips, screws and rivets? I’ll post in the parts for sale area.
