On 92's they had the black insert. A 93 w/w should have an all white grill.

Another inconsistency with PAS/GM. My 1993 White/White had an all white grill.

The majority of the 92's, along with the SoGT's were charcoal headlight buckets and grilles with the argent cladding on colored bodies. Most black trucks had black cladding/black grilles. A few black trucks had argent cladding. 93's were solid colors (grille & cladding).
I bet the 93 press release pic that Ken posted up was a pick of a 92, honestly.

I understand but my 93 has a black grill like the pic. So was it replaced or factory I'll try to post pic.

Take a look at very bottom of grille, the part hidden by front cover see if there's small holes in front edge

Re: 93 ty grill on w/w question

from what Ive seen, those holes are on factory installed grilles only, I had a GM over the crounter grille dated 1994 and there were no holes, just a observation not gospel

I have an aftermarket chrome grill that has those holes and had a little splash guard of some sort installed.
