Early Aluminum Grille on G-Body Rear Deck?

[Pinball81]

Trying to determine if an early aluminum 5-bar grille ('70-72) will fit on a G-body/SC rear deckled. Part number for the grille is 911.559.041.00.

I have found conflicting information online regarding the part number for the rear decklid... some resources say the rear decklid is the same from 1969-89, others say 1969-76.

The 5-bar grille appears that it will line up with the mounting points on the decklid from my '83 SC, but trying to confirm that there will be no fitment or mounting issues. This is for a backdate build.

Any input would be appreciated!

I got the following answer from Rennsp when I asked the same question for my '87

Yes, you can fit it although this grille is design for 65-68 car with a vertical bridge on the decklid.
We have 3 bar type here: www.Rennspd.Com
and 5 bar type here: www.Rennspd.Com
Both of these are direct fit to your 87 911 Carrera.

Yumm E! I think these polished grills are a nice look on G bodies with polished alum window trim and such. Perfect for my silver 912E-6 as well, some day.
