hello all i just bought a 85 short bed. i was wondering where i can locate a billet grill for it. it has one in it but rusted pretty good and i like the look of it. also right above the wheel wells on the bed are starting to get bad thank you.

 

if it has a billet grille it was probably custom made by one of the previous owners because there is pretty much zero after market parts for these trucks. they probably got one for a chevy and cut it to fit a dodge.

 

here it is since i lifted it any idea what year of chevy one i should look for?

 

i am not 100% sure but i would guess a 81-87 chevy truck, blazer, jimmy or Suburban. so far the ones i have seen look a bit different than yours. have you maybe thought about trying to have that one re chromed?

 

i was thinking about that but i got poking around and it rust threw in some spots thank you for your input any more would greatly be appreciated

 

I finally found them, guys. They are towards the bottom of the page here http://www.airbagit.com/Dodge-Billet-Grilles-s/1639.htm

Lots of options, even a phantom one that covers the headlights too.

 

the only problem with the link you posted is they don't seem to be posting actual pictures of the item or it installed on the truck. i would guess from the picture that the OP posted that the billet was made to custom cut to fit that the the grille.

 

Top right corner of the little picture for all the listings in the link has it. If you click one of the links, you can zoom in. Looks like it still retains a ghost of the "crosshair" look.

 

but they don't show actual pictures of the grilles. looks like they just use the i generic picture for all of them so you would not know what your getting if you ordered one. why would you want headlight covers? they usually make seeing at night suck. when i get enough extra money i was thinking about trying these.
