Billet grilles
Does anybody make a reproduction of the classic 1971-72 egg crate grille insert but made from billet aluminum? I know they make the aftermarket billet grilles with the flat bars in various widths and even the phantom style grilles. But I think a billet egg crate style grille would be pretty sharp looking too. Maybe not the same depth as the original plastic insert ones. That would be pretty pricey I'd think. I dont think I've ever seen one like the one I'm asking about. What do you guys think?

Re: Billet grilles
Not sure if this is what you are thinking. Towards the end of this thread a board member ordered one from the company they are talking about.

Re: Billet grilles
Thanks CG, that is exactly what I'm talking about. Wow that's a nice looking grille they make. And the price seems appropriate for what I thought it would be. I'm already gonna start saving my pocket change.

Re: Billet grilles
I went with the chromed plastic grille.
I did look up the aluminum grille. 1971-1972 Chevrolet aluminum grille, Polished finish Regular price $1,399.00 That's a lot of change. However, I don't think its out of line for the work that goes into this product. |
