Default Smittybilt M1 Grill installed

I installed a Smittybilt M1 grill. Install is pretty easy. The hardest part is mentally getting over the fact that you have to destroy your factory grill by cutting out the center part. The rest is easy, and it is really sturdy. I moved the Ram head over from the center part of the grill too.

So after having it on for a few days and seeing my truck parked in my yard or in a parking lots as I walk toward it, I've decided that I really don't like the look at all. It honestly gives the truck a fancy look to it, which is not at all what I was going for. I prefer a more rugged off-road look, not bedazzled fancy look. It would look great on a street truck, but that isn't the look I was hoping for honestly. So I have ordered a new OEM grill to go back to what I had for now.

I suppose this one is now for sale if anyone wants it. I will keep the Ram head badge, but the rest (OEM frame with mounting brackets and Smittybilt insert) is for sale if anyone likes this look. It just isn't for me.
