Well today i was bored and had some of the chrome door protector stuff and applied it to my grill it looks a little better than the black and also ran out of it, not sure how long it will last and if this doesn't work out i might just paint it what do you guys think ?

Not feeling it. Sorry.


You need to paint the grille and get SRT mesh. JMO

That looks better...I can't stand those plastic flaps. Check out the grill I just made...another cheap DIY option...and you get to see what it looks like on white haha

And FYI your truck looks so nice without the front license plate...I hate California for that!!!

Yeah it def looks better than stock! Finish it off and you will be money! You can get more of the chrome stripping for cheap right? You only need like 3 feet to finish off the 6 remaining...

Is ducks unltd headquarters in Memphis TN? I am sitting with my buddy and he says he knows your company from Memphis?

Alex it's what you like. You just put it on here to see our opinions. In a way I like it but in one way I don't. I think you should do what Brad did to his.

I am not a fan but i say if you like it then good but i would deff finish it and do the other slats.

Yeah man, do whatever you like, I just gave my opinion.

yeah what i did is a little more work. I looked into a kit on eBay that did the chrome strips and decided to protect my radiator a little more and I have always liked the "street scene" style grills ie Diamond cut mesh but was not about to drop $200++...so do what you like, and either way it is an upgrade from stock.

Stone White FTMFW!!! Yeah Nate you like that

YESSSSSSSSSSSS Stone White is Johnny Blaze!!!! I think it's not bad Alex. IMO I want to tone down the chrome grill on my jeep. I think I'm going to take Brad's idea and put a spin on it. LOL

this also looks nice. but it's a total contrast compared to one that i saw here with black grilles on their jeep. it looked totally sleek. but this looks amazing too. kudos.
