Default Which billet grill?

So I got some cash lyin around and Im thinking of getting a new grill for 1) mine is getting pretty crappy and 2) I hate the honeycomb crap inserts....So which one do u think

1.http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/de/full.aspx?Page=12 It says its for the sport, but would that make a difference. As far as i know they didnt do anything with the grill, or am i wrong??


2.http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/de/full.aspx?Page=15 The top one on the page

3.http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/de/full.aspx?Page=15 The middle one .

I really like 1 and 2 is cool also. 3 to me is at the very least what id wanna do. But as ive said do u think 1 would be a problem?

The wide-open mouth grille looks effin' badass. I'm going to do that. The last issue of LMC had a truck that was blue with a wide-mouth grille and the quad-fog light bumper that was simply the most stunning truck I've seen! I'd go with the wide-mouth!

Ah edit.: The sport grille woudln;t fit at all. Look at the shape. The sport only fits with a sport bumper. The grille is rounded on the bottom, as ours are flat. It's noticable, just look.

I like the grille on page 9

The first one looks better. I think they made the sport grilles just a hair smaller then the regular ones.

Well, Pick 2 seems to look like a ford grill IMO. Go over to the third gen page and look up ramminator. The grill on his looks like a damn Lincoln....... Now he is going to come over here and go wild....

haha cuz thats just silly lol...nah jk i like the plastic chrome and i dont think the style of the grill inserts or IMO shiny inserts look to great in non-chrome grilles.


BUT, Since i havent told anyone whats going on with my ram as of late (big things IMO) im currently turning my ram into a transformer yeah thats right.

Tom my ram goes in for tint, matchin the back quad windows, im having the repaint/rust gone touch up done on june 16th plus my new bed stripes and such and my grill will be here next week sometime. SoOOOOoo00oo0o i gotta post pix i guess when its done!!

Oh and forgot, towards the end of the summer ill FINALLY get blacked out head and talelights plus the blacked out third tale.
