I'm looking to change my front grille. I'm told the one that's on my truck now is from an '89 and my truck is an '86. Where is a good place to go to find a new grille for an '86? Does anyone have any pics of an '86 grille?

That makes sense. Who ever put it on the truck before I bought it cut the bottom mounting tabs off so the bottom isn't even mounted!

Found an ebay store named car parts wholesale! I got a grille and front bumper cheap! I had to get my lower valance from JBM though! I couldn't find a chrome one anywhere else!

just curious, why did you go back to the original model grill? anyway, looks really nice, new bumper is pretty, just ditch the orange bulbs for some clears. mirrors are pretty sweet too, bet you can't see a damn thing outta that passenger side....

I personally like the new bumper a lot. But I feel like the grill you went with doens't match as well as the old one you had.... to bad the fitment sucked on the old grill... where did you get that bumper?

I got the bumper from car parts wholesale. I believe it's a store on ebay!
