I have a phantom grille from them, and it fit perfectly. So, hopefully this one will fit just as well.

Re: Anybody have experience with these grilles?

Agreed, that is a really good price. I have an old Stull chrome grille that looks very similar to that, with the mount pads for the turn signal or driving lights. The Suburban I got it off of had turn lights behind the grille, but my truck has them below the headlight. I've been considering a driving light to go there and serve as daytime running light.

The biggest hang-up I have with mine is, getting the hood open, since I'm using the standard hood latch/release. Have to squeeze my fingers in and unlatch the release, where I used to be able to reach the bottom of the release handle thru the stock grille quite easily.

It does look like a nice product, though. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts once you get it installed, Desert1957!!

That looks like it fits nicely. And it looks good on the truck. If my phone rebate ever comes in the mail, I'll be ordering one of these grilles.
