Chrome engine cover grill

[Quickstep192]

I'm looking for a chrome engine cover grill for my '73 Targa.
Anybody know a source?

I've seen them for a '72, but I'm not sure the grill from a '72 will fit a '73.

I think they where all black? in 73, I know my early MFI 73 is.

All grilles from '65-'73 will fit.

Essentially there were 4 different grilles used during this period:

1. '65-early '68 (bright anodised)
2. late '68 & '69 (bright anodised with 3 vertical support bars behind)
3. '70/'71 (bright anodised with 5 vertical support bars behind)
4. '72/'73 (black* anodised with 5 vertical support bars behind)

The bright anodised (aluminium) grilles are often incorrectly described as 'chrome'.

*these grilles are actually more dark grey than black

My 72 has the bright anodized grill. Should it be black?
