06 ss 2.4 is there a grille in lower opening front bumper?

just noticed my wifes silver 2006 ss with the 2.4 motor...there is opening level with fog lights that is empty. allowing one to see ac grille/radiator?

it sure looks to me as if there was a grille there at one time as i see marks along center of opening around edges on bottom and sides yet no attachment clips of any sort?

very strange yet neither myself or my wife have a pictures or anything that would show us if there was one....bought new a year ago march.

the grille above the bumper skin is intact and fine just wierd that below is empty and also the scuff like marks as if there was a bumper there that was removed or blew off or something... never had an accident or anything.

any help appreciated.

thanx

yes, the 2.4's should have a lower grill down there......there aren't any attachment clips on the bumper though. Just clips on the grille itself that snaps in and holds it in place.

$10 says someone with an SS that didn't come with it snatched it off yours.

anyone with a picture i can see what i am trying to replace?

and i see rub marks along paint but no attachment spots for it... does this grill have its own clips or double back tape? i assume it must be a tite pressure fit of part?

any help appreciated... this is a 2006 cobalt ss 2.4 coupe...automatic.

the SS grille above bumper is of course the black plastic that looks like louvers... what exactly does/did the bottom one look like?

again this is the non-supercharged SS 2.4.

thanx again guys

Both of these are SS SC cars, but the grill, and fitiment is the same.

Yes, the lower valence is SS SC (or aftermarketed install).

No problem, thats what we're here for!
