80 Grilles
Hookay. I've had gradual shift in plans for Red, but long story short, I want to get an OE chrome grill for my truck (its an 80), but mine, being a Custum Deluxe, came with round headlights and plastic grille. My ? is will the chrome grill in 80 fit in place of my plastic one, or would i have to change to square headlight bezels?

Even the chrome grille is plastic. Its vacuum plated plastic. The 1980 grilles are interchangable with the different headlight bezels.

Yeah but the "chrome" one even if it is plastic, looks chrome. I like it better than the plastic painted one.

Have you tried the chrome spray paint for the one you got? I have never used this paint but it is a option and a cheaper one at that.

LMAO, go check out my car domain
 i did the chrome spray paint, and it looks a million times better than it did before, but it doesn't look chrome; it looks more Stainless Steel.
