See I think your truck looks good with painted grill just dunno if it would look wierd on a lifted truck or if that should even matter

Your truck looks great the way it is now, If i was going to change the grill up I would put a 03-06 gmc grill in it, with a billet grill. I think they look great and they will fit with the 99-02 bumper.

Not a Bad idea either. Are they costly?

If it was lowered I'd vote yes to painted grille, as it is looks perfect IMO. The only thing I'd change is remove the ventvisors.

I bought one for 150 new in 2009 for my 1999 I had. Im sure you could find a used one cheaper though. I always thought it looked good and different with the bumper and grill combo.

It looks good now, if you do paint it the grille needs a black billet insert, color match the mirrors also IMO..
