While it is the M28 - Wide Grille Surround, not everything in that thread is correct. It was not a mid year option and it was not available with elastomeric bumpers. It was a standalone option on all models, including the coupe.

Thanks for the correction. Here is another thread about the same topic (I could not find it in the first place.):

Indeed it was not a mid year option. I own an 802 date coded Dealer Promo SHOW car whcih came with the M28 Wide Chrome treatment as well as a few other goodies.
