So what you guys think. I was going to do the T-Rex grill but kinda didn't like the way it looked. I kinda like this style a little more and kinda reminded me of a Esky Grill look. And also was 200 cheaper. So I got it in today and going to do the install tonight. I will do a write up of the install as well. I am really scared to cut my freshly painted front bumper.

UPDATE:

Well I did it. I think it looks good. :imo: But it was really easy to do but just hard to get my self to cut that newly painted bumper. Here are the install pics and after.

Ahh you guys are killing me. know I don't know what to do.

Slide new grill back in the box, put on ebay, forget this ever happened, and consult me before making changes to the Tahoe. Problem solved :shrug:

I gotta say it looked ok on that white tahoe but i think with the black the stock grill helps break it up a little. I would stay stock. IMO. Thats why i didnt buy a yukon though either i personally not a fan of the big mouth grill look. I think your truck looks sick the way it is!!

SW CT,
I like how it fits and extends from headlight to headlight...the T-rex looks like an add-on and randomly overlaps the opening. That grill also has the stock look mesh/honeycomb which helps it look like a factory upgrade. That being said I am up in the air about it...would I like to see it done on your truck?? YES! would I be ready to cut up my new 'burb for one?? Not Likely!

+1 That is why I have a Suburban vs. a Yukon, because of that tougher look.
