1985-1987 Grille Rebuilt

5 Attachment(s)

Rebuilt 85-87 Grille $275 plus shipping

New aftermarket grille. This is the best aftermarket grille I have found. Made from new tooling to be an exact match to the OEM grille. Very sturdy. Accepts all OEM parts with ease.

Center grille trim are OEM. They do have some surface scratches and very minor dings. I try to use only the best trims I can find, which is rare.

4 vertical trims are OEM. Again some minor surface scratches. I try and use only the best pieces.

Bowtie is OEM. Some minor pitting but the color is fantastic.

Parking lamps are new. And all the hardware to mount the trim pieces are new.

The color actually comes from colored tape. I clean them of the tape, so the next owner can actually tape or paint them if they like. I did that with mine, I retaped them in red to match the truck.

Thanks!!:metal:

Yeah I always thought they were painted also, until I cleaned them for the first time. It's definatley some sort of painted tape. The tape residue is the hardest to remove. I soak them in heavy duty pro stripper. The tape comes right off, but the residue left behind wants to hang on for dear life!!
I used Vinyl Tape to do mine.

Yes it can be swapped. I do make up new 83-84 grilles from time to time. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=750261

The 85-87 grilles are nicer looking in my opinion. Do you already have the 83-84 grille?
