Re: Which Grill?

I agree with Aaron, I change my vote to a '73-74 grill ;-)

Re: Which Grill?

I like the stock one myself,in fact I'd love to swap that one in place of the stock 80 grill on mine.

Re: Which Grill?

#1
gives your truck that aggressive look a 4x4 needs.
but Wait, the #3 grill is PLASTIC!?
that's the one i was looking at, and then putting the GMC logo on it. but i'm not about to pay $200 for a piece of plastic.

Re: Which Grill?

I think #1 as it has a more classic look which fits the truck better.
