Brand Billet Grill

I'm in the market for a black billet grill. After some researching here, some say to buy chrome and paint it black. What do you think i should do? Just buy it black or buy chrome and paint it?

Also, what brand is the most popular?

There was a fellow here that was selling a black powdercoated billet grill from trex for $90 and I missed out on it. Wish I can find something like that again.

I've noticed yall mentioned Grillgraft, Carriage works, t-rex. What's the difference? Is it the thickness of the billet?

Any suggestions appreciated.

 

wow...
another black billet grill thread for today....

 

Seriously... This is getting wayyyy beat into the ground lol. But just do some more searching, everything you are looking for has already been discussed.. many times

 

IDk what brand braah, ppl say some are good others say bad. I bought a billet grille. A T-rex one. Looked good and the quality was good, but it was such a fukin hassle installing it. I Had to grind excess welds on the top in order to get the top flush with the rest of the grille. Also i had to grind down the sides TO get it to FIT. Thern the sides were so sharp i had to file each billet till it was flat and smooth. I say dont get a T-rex one. IT should have a perfect fit, you no just drop it in maybe a few bends here and there on the tabs. I"ll show you some pics of final product.

 

Here is the finished product after 4 hours of work not 1 like they say. I havent put it on my truck yet i'm waiting for my 22's

 

I bought one off ebay and the fit was ok, not the greatest, but ok for me at the time. I gave it to my younger brother and we took a dremel to it so it fit better. We cut a little off the ends to get a nice flush fit and then we took some 3m rubberirzed coating to it so it was black.

 

I doubt it was a T-Rex. It was probably one that looked like a T-Rex. Mine was a T-Rex and it fit perfect without any modifications.

 

I got the Carriage works upper and lower. No problems on the install. Im gonna paint it black when I get home from Iraq.
