11-13 hood with a 14-17 grille?

Post by Black6 »

Has anyone put a 14-17 grille in a 11-13 hood? I know that sometimes even if hoods are the same, other parts might not interchange. Wondering if anyone ever did the swap or if the chrome outside piece is the same as well..

Ok I couldn’t find anything that was 100%. One website had a different part number. Thank you.

And that does happen. You are smart for asking, because some of the parts have been updated throughout production, and some do not fit.
