Would anyone have any info on how to recess your front lights?

That is a phantom grill over original lights in the pic.

ckenwright 05-28-2003 10:44 AM

Do you need to pull the lights back at all. and where can I get that grill?

I don't think that you need to move your headlights back at all, you just replace your inner grille with the phantom one, you can get that grill from some of the vendors in this great site, they can tell you how to install it too, they own trucks of our vintage. :bowtie: :gmc:

Guys, thank you for all the help. I'm trying to gather parts needed to twin turbo my truck. I need a little more room for this intercooler I got. I think this might help.

Better check the laws if it is a street truck.In pa you can't run the bars over your lights.

ckenwright 05-28-2003 12:17 PM

Excellent suggestion. Anyone know off hand what the laws are concerning this in the Las Vegas area?

CPNE 05-28-2003 12:24 PM

I was just there. I didn't realize there are laws in Las Vegas!:D

ckenwright 05-28-2003 12:38 PM

I don't think they have any about the way you drive here, just how you keep your vehicle. This is the first state I have been to that I have had to emission test my 69.

I know that the Carriageworks phantom billet requires extensive modifications to get it in our trucks. They have a note that says:EXTENSIVE FABRCTION REQ'D beside each one they carry.

ckenwright 05-28-2003 03:33 PM

Anyone have any website links that sell these or show them being installed?

I can get them but they are a special order item. They run around $350.00 plus shipping.

You DO need to recess your headlights. I did this mod on my truck and they are right, EXTENSIVE MODIFICATIONS. But in the end its sweeeeet.

trenz sells the phantom grill.

barn9 05-28-2003 11:31 PM

Trenz also makes that grill in a model that replaces the stock grill, much better looking in my opinion, and you can get it with or without a bowtie emblem in the center.

ckenwright 05-29-2003 06:41 AM

If anyone could send links, e-mail or internet, that would be great.

Thanks

Are you looking for an online store that carries the phantom grilles or are you looking just for some pics?


I can get the Trenz and Carriageworks brands in a brushed, polished and black versions. They are not online since they are a special order item.

ckenwright 05-30-2003 11:17 AM

Yes and black version would be cool.

Thanks
