I like the CVPI black grille pattern over the stock chrome on my 99...can I switch these out? Thanks

Itâ€™s possible. Did you already buy this grille or do you have a link/ image

I like the black grille over the chrome

Here is the grille on 99 LX

I wanted to buy this but it says 2003-2011. Amazon has a 98-02 black grille but it is the same design.

Yes, it fits the same, only difference is the emblem as the one on the chrome grille is smaller.

Thanks...i couldn't pass on this 99 CV LX Special Edition w/70k miles in almost mint cond. But I want a 2008 or 2011 CVPI as well. I hate the chrome look and older grille...
