72 Billet Grille; Where? How Much? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

72step · 05-07-2002, 02:57 PM

I am currently trying to find a billet grille for my 72. Where's the best place to get one? Of course I am concerned about quality more than price. Eastcoastcustoms.com used to have decent prices and grilles, but they don't list billet grilles on their site anymore, unless I'm looking at the wrong site? Thanks in advance!

Im pretty sure that the truck shop has them or Brothers. They usually run about 350$ for the grille. Hoped that this helped you? Brian Wolf

Eastcoast Customs have them also and I think there alot cheaper than the ones above.

Saw one at a vender's spot at Pomona. Looked good. Was $130.00. I've got their card somewhere. If you need it, let me know and I'll dig it out. (I know it wasn't the Truck Stop)

Sure, go ahead and try to find that contact for me. I wouldn't buy anything from LMC, especially for that price! All the stuff I've bought from them in the past has been junk.

I've been looking at billet grills and am planning on getting one soon also. The best one I've found is made by Trenz, and is available through Stylin' Concepts (Trenz won't sell direct) for $169.95 + 17.00 shipping (that's the quote I got 2 months ago). I saw one on another member's truck, and he liked it real well. I even called Trenz fabrication facility in CA. and talked to them (they went and got the person that makes them so I could get the details). You can still use your orig. hood latch according to the guy that had one. I know I'm getting one as soon as I get the $ put aside for it.

This sucks! Just about 6 months ago I had looked around and priced billet grilles, and had found one on East Coast for like 136 bucks, and other places had some for like closer to 120, and now I can't find any anywhere. The trenz doesn't show a good picture. So I am in distress. Does anyone have a good picture of a Trenz Billet Grille which is seeming to be my only choice? Thanks
