Gloss Black Finish
The grille is supplied with a gloss black finish that complements the exterior trim and lower-front appearance of a properly equipped 1991-1992 Camaro Z28.
Gloss black surfaces can show fingerprints, fine scratches and cleaning marks more readily than satin finishes. Clean the grille with mild automotive soap and a soft microfiber towel. Avoid abrasive compounds, stiff brushes and aggressive solvents.
Red Chevrolet Bowtie Emblem
A highlighted red Chevrolet Bowtie emblem is incorporated into the center portion of the grille. This replaces the silver “CAMARO” lettering used on the earlier 1985-1990 IROC-Z grille design.
Protect the emblem and surrounding gloss finish from abrasive cleaners, polishing compounds and masking tape.
Fog-Light Grille Design
The grille has two large openings designed around the fog-light arrangement used with the 1991-1992 Camaro Z28 front fascia.
The fog lights install separately and are not included with the grille. Inspect the existing bumper cover and fog-light positioning before installation, particularly if the vehicle has experienced collision damage or previous front-end modifications.
| Year | Make | Model | Front-fascia application | Finish |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1991 | Chevrolet | Camaro Z28 coupe | Z28 fascia with fog lights | Gloss black |
| 1991 | Chevrolet | Camaro Z28 convertible | Z28 fascia with fog lights | Gloss black |

- Designed specifically for the 1991-1992 Camaro Z28 front fascia
- Features two large fog-light openings
- Includes a highlighted red Chevrolet Bowtie emblem
- Supplied with a gloss black finish
- Does not fit the standard Camaro RS front fascia
- Does not provide the correct appearance for the 1985-1990 IROC-Z
- Does not fit 1982-1984 Camaro models
- Does not fit Pontiac Firebird, Formula or Trans Am models
- Review 1992 Heritage Package information before ordering
- Compare the grille shape and bumper-cover configuration with the product photographs
Although earlier IROC-Z grilles can have similar overall mounting dimensions, they use different exterior identification. The correct 1985-1990 IROC-Z-style grille features “CAMARO” lettering rather than the centered red Bowtie used on this 1991-1992 Z28 design.
1992 Heritage Package Consideration
Restoration catalogs identify 10139545 for 1992 Z28 models without the 25th Anniversary Heritage Package treatment.
The optional 1992 Heritage Package could include a body-color grille as part of its exterior appearance. HT10139545-PG1 is supplied in gloss black and may not provide the factory-correct color treatment for a Heritage Package vehicle.
All 1992 Camaros commemorated the Camaro’s 25th anniversary, but not every 1992 Camaro received the optional Heritage Package. Confirm the vehicle’s original exterior configuration before ordering.
Original-Part Reference
This grille is a reproduction replacement for discontinued GM part number 10139545.
Original GM parts may contain molded production, supplier or revision numbers that differ from the complete service-part number. Confirm fitment through the vehicle application and grille configuration rather than relying exclusively on a molded number.
HT10139545-PG1 is the inventory number for this gloss black reproduction.
Reproduction Information
This is a newly manufactured reproduction manufactured from injection-molded ABS plastic. It is not used, New Old Stock or an original GM grille.
The component is produced to recreate the shape and appearance of the original grille. Minor differences in surface texture, gloss level, molding details or attachment-point tolerances may exist when compared with an original production component.
Test-fit the grille before completing final assembly.
Installation Information
Before installation:
- Inspect the replacement grille for shipping damage
- Remove the original grille carefully
- Examine the bumper cover for cracks or distortion
- Compare the original and reproduction side by side
- Confirm the position of both fog-light openings
- Check every molded attachment location
- Test-fit the grille in the bumper cover
- Verify consistent spacing around the perimeter
- Check clearance around both fog lights
- Confirm that the grille is stable and evenly aligned
- Clean fingerprints from the gloss surface
A distorted or collision-damaged bumper cover can prevent proper grille alignment. Correct bumper-cover damage before attempting final installation.
