Default ss hood grille

I have a RK Sport ss hood and need a grille for it. I called rk sport and they only sell them in chrome now. I do not want chrome. Does anybody know if the other aftermarket or oem hood grilles will fit this hood? Thanks

If your hood came like mine with the rectangular opening like a damn mail slot, you will have to open it up somehow to get the stock GM grill insert to fit. I did mine with some large metal files - sanded the opening a little at a time to get to the right shape.
