Billet Grilles

MooseTX82 · 07-05-2008, 08:16 AM

I wanna replace my factory billet grilles. Looking for the steel mesh look. I got a couple questions...

How easy are they to replace? Doesnt seem hard.

Is there any cutting involved?

Do they sell them in packages? I dont want to buy my front, bottom, sides, hood scoop all seperate.

Anyone able to recommend a good place to order this from?

Thanks.

I just replaced my factory grill with a billet. It looks great and was allot easier then I expected. Its kinda scary when your chopping up your factory, but it all come together very well. It is a simple inexpensive way to make a big difference in the appearence of you taco. I got all five pieces on ebay for about $130. Happy hunting

does anybody have a mesh grill that does main grill, two side pieces, and the lower bumper grill for a Gen2? preferably black and maybe the type like the GMC denali's have? or if I find the material how hard is it to cut out the stock plastic but keep the chrome ring in place so I can insert my own material?

I have seen it done and it looks pretty nice, I know from experience that you could fab your own grill insert, its just gonna take the right tools, materials, and some patience. Try looking on ebay, i have seen what your looking for, for around $150. I have installed a few grill inserts myself and know a few tricks if needed.
