I just bought a new grill and installed it but it looks kinda dumb as it's grey with the chrome chev strip on an all black Blazer.  I'm going to change up my old one, but was looking for some more ideas on what to do with it before I change it out more than it needs to.  Could you post some pictures of what your grill looks like?

Thanks

I haven't done anything with my grille yet. But I have the stock chrome strip down the middle, bowtie in the middle of that and then black plastic with the chromestrip at the top (stock for 98-99/00). I have added clear corners which make it look a lot better imo. I am thinking of getting a chrome/billet bowtie and maybe upgrade to the grille style shown above. You should be able to see what I got in my signature pics.

Mine is stock also, but i'm pretty sure my insert is blue, matching the body color, and not black.  Maybe an LT option?  I dunno.

Getcha some chrome door edge molding (the kind in a roll) and stick it on there. I had to do a little work w/ mine but it really looks good.

Haha man you and your Jimmy.  Those are some pretty nice grills, I'll be finishing mine tonight.  Think I'm gonna do the lazyish thing and just paint everything but the chrome strip black... Ya, a bit original eh? ;) I bought the silverstar bulbs for my stock foglights and those should look pretty nice coming from all black with a little chrome I figure > good and simple too

the 880 silverstar foglights dont seem as "silverstar-ish" as the 9006 bulbs. i believe the 880's are only 35w...  

im thinking of getting a second set of HIDs for my foglamps

Yours would actually work better to do the door edging with, whoever originally posted that up had a Jimmy. Theres not any vertical slats to mess it up in the Jimmys

I installed the silverstar bulbs last night and they're at least 200% better than my old ones so I'm happy, I'm not the biggest fan of the super bright bulbs though anyway - my opinion

I think on an all-black truck, an all-black grille would look really cool, with a red or chrome bowtie.  Mine's for a '95-97, but they also make 'em for the '98+es.  If you have shiny chrome wheels, then get the chrome bowtie.  An all-chrome grille would also look good, in which case I'd look for a black bowtie.

LMC Truck carries a lot of different styles of grilles for Chevy trucks.  I'd say check them out first.  You can also find what you need on Ebay, but some vendors are questionable.
