I know '90 was a "bastard stepchild" year in terms of body styling for 740's, but the problem I (and Revolv in AZ) are having with replacing my grille is a real frustrating one, to say the least. I originally wanted to change my grille from chrome to black but have now gotten two replacement grilles- one labeled as from a '90 car and the other looks brand new- that don't fit my front end. Has anyone out there ever had that problem?? Andy from Revolv double checked the production year on my car after the first one didn't fit (2-90), but the second one they sent is just like the first- both grilles are slightly larger than my existing one and won't fit in the mounts; they overlap on the sides about an inch on either end. Could these grilles have come from a 760 or turbo car that may have a slightly different sized grille/front end? maybe even a 240?? How can I verify/confirm the right sized grille for my car?
