Ha! Neither. The plates I got from an antique shop because they still had the 78 sticker on them. I don't run them on the street. Photos and car shows only.

Yeah its not 100% accurate, but its still a great visual tool.

Re: Show me your grill

I'll get a pic in the next couple of days.


My bad. Never mind, I thought you were talking about the jewel encrusted braces on my teeth. They's purtier than the other homey's pic.

Rockauto grill, signal lenses from pic-n-pull and light bezels from LMC. Total package was well under 100 bucks.

Re: Show me your grill

Had the stock grille on my 84, until it started slowly breaking apart, so I went to the local pick n pull and found a grille from a 90 Chevy Van. I also grabbed a air-chin from Suburban while I was at it...

Re: Show me your grill

I've always been a fan of the 85-88 Chevy and GMC grills.

The color-matched center bar on the Chevy grills are a nice touch.


However, the GMC grills really do it for me. I can't quite put my finder on why, though. Maybe because they aren't as common.
