Tried to answer a few days ago but the site wouldn't respond. Thanks for the response. Seen the one on dodgeparts.com might go with that one. Also, let us know how the cabalas cover works out. could be the excuse I need to drive 3 hours to the closest Cabala's.

I'm in the process now of making one out of plexi that will fit in the openings of the grill. Those vinyl covers look nice, but I really think they are overpriced. Maybe Dave ( parts/service )can work something up for ya. Shoot him a PM
I thought about that but it was too much work. I just made a cardboard template for a piece to go behind the grill and cover the whole thing, then cut it out of black expanded plastic sheeting (basically plastic cardboard). I used about 12 zip ties to secure it to the grill. You cant' even tell it's there unless you get close and see the zip ties.
Well I finished making it and I'm really happy with it. It wasn't hard to do at all.

Just ordered my winter front from dodgeparts.com. Went back to the dealer that I purchased the truck from, and this part is back ordered and could take up to 2 months. He also checked other dealers and there was none available in the state. Besides, dodgeparts was about $15 dollars cheaper. BUT, going to Cabala's anyway. Screw the reason! Time to melt the credit card!

I couldnt find a cover on dodgeparts.com or autotrucktoys.com for my truck. Any ideas where to look for an older truck?

I bought mine from the local Dodge dealer that works great here in Alaska. It cost me $99 and covers up the radiator from under the hood, it also has a small area that allows you to open or close depending upon how cold the weather is. I'm on my second winter and the fake leather seems to be holding up.
