Help Needed! Search for new grille sourround!

So my truck is in the shop post-accident and the body shop is giving me until 9:00 EST tomorrow morning to come up with a site to replace my broken grille surround. I looked at the kit my dad bought a year ago, but I cannot find just the shell. The insert is fine. I have found plenty of 99+ shells, but I need a 98 chrome surround shell by itself.

Can anyone help?

jdlowesracer, that is a 99 shell. I have a '98

gsxr, since it is aftermarket, it is up to me to find it. pretty good deal since I'm not paying for it

LMC Truck, again, but for the year range you're looking for.

if nothing else..start checking junk yards. not sure how much it'd cost, but you could always get a regular '97-'98 clip and get it chrome dipped too.
