1969 Chevelle, EL Camino NOS Malibu grille extensions-SS
The 1969 Chevelle/El Camino New Old Stock (NOS) Malibu Grille Extensions (SS Upgradeable) are ultra-rare, factory-original front-end trim assemblies manufactured by General Motors specifically for the 1969 model year. Positioned on the outer edges of the front clip, these components serve as the critical headlight surrounds that bridge the visual gap between the center grille and the front fenders. Finding a matching uninstalled passenger and driver-side set in original GM packaging is the ultimate milestone for a concours-level restoration, ensuring authentic factory material thickness, original anodized luster, and precise edge margins that modern aftermarket reproductions fail to perfectly duplicate.
🛠️ Key Product Specifications & Features
- Genuine GM Factory Stampings: Authentic New Old Stock (NOS) components stamped on historical General Motors assembly line tooling under original GM Part # 3945417 (Left Hand/Driver Side) and GM Part # 3945418 (Right Hand/Passenger Side).
- Malibu to SS Versatility: These extensions feature the base Malibu configuration layout. Because GM shared the base stamping architecture between trims, these are the exact pieces required for a Super Sport restoration.
- SS Restoration Note: To meet concours-correct specifications for a true SS 396, the horizontal clear/silver anodized center bars must be masked and painted with satin/matte black trim paint to achieve the aggressive, blacked-out Super Sport front fascia.
