Re: New to the site from the Las Vegas Nv
Also i was wondering if anyone has every tried chroming the complete front grille rather then just the light bezels and molding?
Sort of how the grille on my truck is except in chrome? If so any pictures, any stories, experiences trying! Never seen it and kind of curious! Im really considering it |

Welcom from Las Vegas.. There are a few of us 67/72 guys here as well as other years...
As far as chroming the grill, I think it would look incomplete because the part of the fenders that is next to the grill section wouldn't match... |
