    Hello,
    I was reading some of the post about painting grilles and all, which I think I may do, but my grille is broke. Where can I find another grille for my 76 mav. Is the junkyard the only place?

    The grills are not reproduced. Post an ad in the wanted section and I am sure you will get some responses. Or like you mentioned, go hunting in a yard for one. (y)

    What about a billet grille? You could paint it too.

    I have seen pics here where they glued sections from another grille to repair their grille. If it’s the mounting tabs are broken you can glue metal flashing to the back side to reinforce the tab
