Im wanting to convert it to a GMC front clip , IMO i like the Gmc grills the look they have , im thinkin of just sanding it all down to the original layer as much as i can

I like GMC's too. I was wondering what the original color was. My old truck was black. It was my first one.

the original color combo is dark/med blue , one of the weirder combos haha
