Which Grill?
I ordered a grill, and it was on backorder, so I canceled it and now I'm trying to decide between these 3 on LMC.
Which grill? |

Re: Which Grill?
If it were going on my truck I would pick #3. If it's going on the truck in your avatar I would consider #1.

Re: Which Grill?
I like 2 or 3. I do see where Ken is coming from about #1 looking good on your 4X4 truck.

Re: Which Grill?
I'm actually growing partial to number 1 with the tubes. For some reason, I feel like the proportions make more sense with the lifted truck. Strange, because when I first posted this, I was almost dead set on number 2.

Re: Which Grill?
Yeah #1 seems to have that more aggressive bolder look like your lifted 4x4 does.

#3 is plastic, but I do like the looks of it better. #1 didn't look good 30 years ago, and it doesn't look any better now, 4x4 or not. Funny, I've been looking at these too as my '77 needs something. IMHO the repop looks the best, but why no provision for the emblem? Without a bowtie it just looks odd. OTOH the repop is what $50 vs $200 for #3...

Re: Which Grill?
I kinda like the repro stock grille. But, if I had to choose I would go with #3.

Re: Which Grill?
Mount a Chevy emblem in the center of the one you have now...if you're up for a little fab work.
Otherwise, #3 looks cool but it's very expensive. #2 looks good too and is a good bit cheaper.
