    fed ex delivered my new grillcraft grille today. i ordered the chrome looking one cause i figured if i didnt like it down the road i can always just paint it black. well.... it turns out this really isnt chrome looking at all. its more of a grey looking cooler. kinda weird but looks pretty good i guess..... would of thought for $170 bucks it would of been chrome or polished

    I think the silver will add a nice contrast to the black truck. If you don't like it you can always paint it.

    $125 Local, or $125 plus actual shipping. The grill has never been installed, just removed from the box.

    finally got the grillcraft in. also painted the small grille on the hood. the lower is on order and then gonna paint the skid plate gloss black.

    my final decision is.... i like the color !!!!

    that will look awesome with the lower installed also.. nice contrast where as black would have just blended in.

    What a pain in the ass to remove the front bumper. Especially when the truck has less than 800 miles. Lol. Gotta be gentle. Gotta be gentle.
