I think it would look good on my truck. Anybody else have this already or have any better ideas? Thanks! *Edit by rabbit0102030--fixed long annoying link < Message edited by rabbit0102030 -- 4/15/2008 12:48:56 PM > Post #: 1

I am not too fond of it either. It just looks too big and nonproportional. But if you like it go for it. _____________________________ -Lenny 4.3L Auto. 3.73Gears http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2358267 (in reply to swartlkk) Post #: 4

I'm just totally against grill inserts because I think it gives the same lame effect that cheesy hub caps give to wheels. And I really need to do something because the black on the stock grill is sun bleached (that damn global warming, lol) and looks trashy.

Definitely just paint the grill...anndddd a brush guard will spruce the front end up nicely _____________________________ 2000 Blazer 4d LS 4x4 - 265/70/15 General Grabber AT2s - Hunter Brush Guard - Surco Roof Rack with IPF 868s - 1.5'' Shackle + Tbar - 2'' BL (in reply to lennyblazer) Post #: 7

RE: New Grill - 4/14/2008 9:37:21 PM    bigt7088 Posts: 24 Joined: 3/14/2008 Status: offline ya, its not "exactly" my style either, but its a change from the other eighty-something billion other blazers in my area. another place had it for 100 bucks cheaper. But I'll more than likely go with the option of painting, but I have no experience with auto painting. All the work done on my blazer has been done only by me, and I'm trying to keep it that way. so i'll check into it. I appreciate the input! also, the brush guard is definitely on the agenda. It's one of the top priorities because every vehicle i've driven and owned(except the blazer) has hit a deer(including me on my motorcycle). _____________________________ I like money.

I personally think that there are alot of other options you have to spruce up the front end for that amount of money. Anyway, why buy a flashy chrome grill if you were just going to cover it with a brush guard? You should look into some custom grille inserts, find a machine or metal shop and have some designed for you, then you won't have the same thing everyone else has! _____________________________ June 2007 Ride Of The Month (in reply to thegr81) Post #: 12
