Default Free Grill

I could not pass up this offer. A good friend of mine works at a body shop and had a chrome Tahoe grill sitting around with 60K miles on it. I mentioned something to him last year about getting an all chrome grill for the truck, but did not want to pay for it. I know, I am a cheep ***! So any ways, he calls me up and says he has this grill if I want it. It is not in perfect condition, but for 60-K miles it looks pretty damn good. I just got done switching everything over today. I put my billet bowtie and grill inserts in the chrome grill and I think it really looks good. Not too drastic of a change, but now I don't have any black plastic on the front of the truck. Not too bad for FREE. Well, I just owe him a beer or two, or three!

How it looked yesterday.


Just the Chrome Tohoe Grill.


Every thing switched over and how it looks today. Don't mind the bugs.

Hook-ups are nice, but even better when you are the hook-up!
