I'm with Barn9 on this one. Looks like an old F**d grille with later model rectangular headlights. The second picture does look better but it needs a Cowl Induction hood.

For all the "don't cut" crowd, just remember... every time somebody mods a truck, yours goes up in value.

I have never seen an aftermarket or fabricated grill that
looks as good as the originals.

Change the center bar and it would look better. Gets a "A '' for effort " C '' for looks!

Wow...I'm kinda surprised.
I also don' like it. I am all for improving the looks of our trucks, but I think the general pretty much got it right in the visual department.

I don't like it either. I love customs, but that doesn't look right for some reason.
