help needed to identify my front grill panel

[dilbags]

The red grill is off my rig and is a bit rusty, the blue grill is off a wreck, is in GC and is FIBERGLASS . I want to put the blue grill on my rig (82 HJ47, aussie truck) but the standard light fittings and bezel don't fit. Someone has had a hack to fit the standard lights in.

My question is, does anybody recognize the year and/or model of the blue front grill piece?

Note: the blue grill fits perfectly to the side skirts and wheel arches of my rig, it's just the bezel fitment and light fittings that are different, it may even be a hybrid of 2 different models.

Thanks in advance

I would say its def off of a 79 or later truck. you can see where it accomodates the square grill.

Looks just like our 1982 fj40. Mike

Lol they mixed up then, cause mine (the red one) was on my hj47 but is an older grill. The blue one came off an older 40 but is a hj47 grill you say, hehe typical, thanks for the help anyway

The blue one is definitely 79 up. The light spacing is different even in OEM, US federal regs required more space between the headlights. You need the square late model bezel.

The blue one looks just like the one on my 81-BJ41,82-BJ43,83-BJ42
