Default Pics of my finished grille project!

Hey guys, just finished installing my completely changed grille. I ordered the billet grille inserts from grille4u on ebay like a few others have done then went to O'Reilly's and picked up a billet emblem. I also painted the entire grille shell black before installing the billet. I was very happy with the way it turned out, it really changed the front end of my truck. Now I just need to throw the projectors back on .

Nice-looking grille, but I'm partial since I have the exact same one I considered swapping out the factory grille shell for an all chrome Tahoe shell, but I think it would be just too much chrome for me (with the billet grille installed).

Those folks at grille4u are really nice, and they always reply to my emails in a very pleasant way!

Seriously though.....what's with the bright yellow under the hood?

Nice job. The first mod I ever did to my truck was the grill.

Yeah, they are good people. I have yellow everywhere, just my thing I guess. Yellow interior, yellow engine accents, even an Optima yellow top!

i have always been a firm believer in do what you like but have always readily stated my opininon after i said that and my opinions is cool truck but the yellow has got to go especially with the black and tan exterior paint ... maybe if it was all black or something the two tone would look cool but not with the tan IMHO

To each his own I guess, thats why its called customizing. You make it custom to fit you and not everyone else. I actually plan on painting it solid black if I ever have the money to do so.
