it wouls look exactly like the 70 front end once you added the eyebroe trim. No one (except us) will notice the marker lights missing.

so would i be better off going with '68 chevy/'69-72 gmc stuff with the place already there for the trim? my buddy has a '67 and it doesn't have a place for the eyebrow trim, or the trim accross the front of the hood, and that's kinda what i was hoping for.... how would it look without that extra trim? goin for a flat black/understated chrome look. or i have a '70 chevy clip on the truck right now. how would that look with the gmc grille? would it just look wrong? or does stuff not line up like it should?

You would have to remove the pop rivets that hold the top trim piece to the 70 grill and find the top piece for a 67-68 gmc grill to go across the top of the grill to make it look right. I'll find some pics to let you know what I'm talking about...
