Grilles
« on: August 03, 2006, 09:17:00 pm »
I'm trying to decide what to use for a grill for my 85. It's got the 4 headlight design and not sure what to do yet. Anyone using a phantom? Do u like it? Anyone have any pix of a cool grille?

I personally like this front end. I know this isn't what you have but...


Here is a cool phantom grill. I like the bar through the middle. It breaks up the billet and looks nice.


The stock look is cool too.


The full phantom billet is too plain looking in my opinion.


The center billet that doesn't cover the lights looks cool too.

I think they look good when the headlight bezels are painted- this isn't a double headlight, but...

Well that's different but it looks like a screen door. I think I'm gonna go with the phantom grille.

Didn't mean to offend. It's definitely unique it's just kinda plain for the look I'm after that's all. It's definitely cool though.:hat
