Looks much better, eh? Tackiness Adverted!

 

looks awesome man nice job ! !

 

agreed, much better

 

Looks much better.
I like your V8 emblem in the grille. Doesn't look as tacky now with the black grille.

Next project needs to be fixing the paint on your tailgate.

 

looks sweet man! Much better lol

 

I really do like the V8 emblem, its my personal touch. I still need to get the Dodge emblem for the middle of the grille. $50 billet one or $12 Factory one?


I just need a whole new tailgate. That damn thing has seen better days. And putting a new freshly painted piece on this truck would be like hanging a new chandelier in a haunted house (well, almost).

 

Holy hell 50 bucks for billet emblem? Id go with the factory one lol

 

I think I owe myself a good trip to the dealer anyway. I'd like to check out the 2011 Charger and a 2011 Ram Sport. Plus I need a PCV Valve.

 

Jeez all mighty. It only took 3 years to change that grill color... I woulda been out there the next morning with some rattle can black... hell, even grabber green.

Looks much better bud.

 

If anyone is wondering, I bought my grille from Pershing Auto for $53 with free shipping. Yeah, its a great price. The quality of the grille....Well, its a $53 Taiwan-made grille. Its a little thicker than the factory grille, which is nice. And the chrome is shinier than anything on my truck. It is still rather flimsy and one of the tabs came broken. I dont really care 'cause a little JB Weld fixed it. Some of the hardware they send you doesnt work with the factory bolts so you have to re-use the factory stuff. You need the original nuts for the part that bolts to the hood, too. The fitment is okay, it doesnt fit as well as the factory one does, but for a $53 Taiwan grille I cannot complain. All in all, its a good grille at a good price, although I might buy the $316 Mopar USA made grille and stuff it in my barn so in 30 years when I restore this purple beast I have the correct grille (to paint orange once again....J/K)
