Re: how can i spice up my front end...
I don't really have anything new to add that hasn't allready been mentioned. I really do like the chrome bumper and trim for the 1967/1968 chevy. It's not cheap however. I replaced mine another of months ago. I replaced a little at a time though.
I have allways liked your truck oldblue1968chevy. I also liked the headlight half-covers. I have thought about doing the same thing. I got the idea from you. A couple of pics of mine. Last one not mine but from the interweb, notice it doesn't have the chevrolet hood letters. Good luck! Keith |

Re: how can i spice up my front end...
I really like the shaved hood letters, bow tie, turn signals and bumper bolts. It really cleans up the front end and lets the basic details of the 67/68 shine! I like shiny headlight trim, bumper and grill opening surrounds. Oh yeah, the '07-current Jeep Wrangler headlights look great too.

Re: how can i spice up my front end...
I kinda like the letters ..
I'd think about chrome hoops and headlight buckets. Tim Christian sells the shaved (smooth) bumpers I think (?) Top Banana if it's cool to mention it on here? Pretty sure they're on the forum.

Trevorrhine, the turn signals are in the bumper, some led lights from IOWA 80 chrome shop item #170270 the lights are covered with a oval chrome mirror bezel, and the grill mesh i just fasten it with some bolts and tabs.

Re: how can i spice up my front end...
john... buy some silver paint (metallic) and some black shoot the inner panels of the grill (the ones where the parking lights mount to) and shoot them black and then shoot the grill hoops and headlight bezels sliver. in 68 you could get the grile with white, silver or the same color as the rest of the truck maybe you try silver?
