97 Ram, I had some chromed flame inserts, and to be honest they looked a little off. You can clearly see the plastic honeycomb grille behind them and it just looks funny.

i know the 2 levels of flames is a bit odd but really what else would they do....its better then the 3rd gen ones that come in from the sides...that and i dont turn away "garbage" they came from work the guy who bought them brought them back cuz they had a dent on them so they got warrinted so they were gonna put them up in the clearince area, so with a little sweet talking to my boss i got them for free anyways i circled the "dent" bet you wouldent find it if i hadent showen you, besides with the bush guard and lights you dont really see it anyways

Howdy! Has anyone seen grille inserts that are VERTICAL and not horizontal? I'm tired of virtually every grille out there-except Lincolns and some Caddy customs--being horizontal. I've got to replace the grille shell on my 98 as the "chrome" is bubbling off the plastic shell. So I'd like to go vertical with the inserts when I replace the bad shell.
