    This isn't my truck, but this is the look I am going for. I already installed the grill. I still have to install the lights.

    I ditched the chrome surround and derped the emblem. Thought about an aftermarket grille that I could mount a light in but have other things to spend the money on currently.

    Mine is a 06 we just got used about a month ago. . Usually I don't worry about a grill but for some reason the stock grill to me just looks horrible..

    Actually made a stupid bid on a stainless one this morning early on e bay about 40 dollars less than the same grill was on other auctions didn't have a buy it now, was bid only and today was the last day. . Didn't know if i wanted stainless with that dark blue or black Won it about a hour ago. No one else bid. 27 dollars. Ordered the bottom part it cost more than the top. :)
    Had the truck repainted while I was out with work this time, lot of inbound stuff. Just wanted to see the different kind's on our trucks and I like the clean look .

    Thanks to all that posted and for popping up a few pictures. :)
