I did mine 20 years ago and yes I am getting bored with it.I used a semi-flat trim paint to give a little contrast against the gloss black .

I think if I came across a descent deal on the stock brightwork I would change it but it's your truck and in the end of the day it's what you want that matters.

I've just got a lot on my plate right now. There is a lot of stress involved in building a truck......"decisions decisions"

I like it, alot! But if you go with chrome bumpers or chrome anywhere...Then in my opinion, you may as well open the grille up and let it all shine...Whats cool about the look you have now is the high gloss black...If you go with chrome at all with that high gloss black...Let it be "black chrome"...I think it looks "excellently unique" the way it is...;)

It can look badass, but will depend on rims, bumper, wipers, mirrors, and interior. Black is back but without just a hint of bling it can be overwhelming.

I will probably try to polish out the cross bar tomorrow like the one in the pic. If I screw it up or don't like it I will try to find a nice oem grille shell..:chevy:

All that matters is if YOU like it.

It's all about personal preference. IMO it looks like someone went nuts with the spray gun and couldn't stop. Sorry, but I don't care for it, but again that's my opinion and you asked.

Re: Members opinions

Are you going to drive it, daily? If so, then plan for a good bit of the grille to become chipped and speckled from rock, sand, bugs, and anything else you may run into. I had a later model truck with a painted grille, I liked the look, but did not like the result of a couple years of driving. I finally took the grille back to a chrome setup to get away from the rough look.
