    Repost.

    As I remember, fit is crap, along with the styling it gives. Unfortunately im not sure what search terms will yield you the best results. Im sure other will chime in.

    yeah I saw few different types. and last post I saw here was different one I thought.

    otherone I didn't like. and also there is one now looks like gmc grill but no big gap on the bottom of parklight. that i didn't like much either.
    well it's ok I had something on my mind and this can be there til that's done and see which one I like....

    I seen a grille like this on a tahoe in Austin. it looked ok I guess but the rest of the truck looked like hell IMO, every chrome aftermarket piece of anything was on this truck. lol there was even big chrome strips running down the back doors with a huge belt buckle in the middle of both of them. it was the funniest looking tahoe I have ever seen but the grille did look ok and it seemed to look like it fit fine.

    don't worry I don't think I'm gonna go that far out on chrome......
    I'm more tryng to blck out the tahoe. so I"ll beeven painting the gas door as well. and tinting the tail lights etc.

    I just wanted to see how it looks like and definatly, I'm not putting that on the way it is... of course some part will be painted.

    if I don't like it I can always go back or play with this one and modding that grill.

    this one does look like ford grill though If I look at it long enough LOL

    yeah it kinda does stick out like o ford grille if you have seen it on a truck. Iyour tahoe will look good blacked out.

    yeah I first I'll take the pic without black it out.
    then I'll take another for black it our the sides leaving center chromed.
    then see if I want to go with all black out or not.
    which probably will happen since it's me...

    well well it came day early.
    and I put it in now without painting.




    I think I'm gonna paint just around lights leave the center as is.
    and if I don't like it I'll paint everything and leave inner part of grill chorme.

    I think because the pic I saw he had clear corner etc and all chrome as well. that made it really tacky.

    after I put it on yesterday my buddies actually liked it. they also said looks better than was on the pic and I think those black healights, parklense and corner lights =kinda helping tame off that tackyness a little...
    I don't know but I like it actually as well.

    yeah more box look no smooth rounded corners and line in the middle just look like combined the gmc grill and chevy one together.

    I do like my old grill too but I wanted something different. I guess it's just me.
