DanielSix26, How did you do that ?
For that cheap. Been wanting to change my grill for some time now
Daggum!
That seems really high! I see grills like that a lot though so somebody buys them. Mine was $119 shipped. View attachment 18001
I'm sure there is a big quality difference, At least there better be!
All the same, I like how the rivets contrast with the chrome surround. Looks good.
eBay
Here is the one I bought:

So you painted the frame around the grill red ?
Because on the picture, everything is black. and that is why I wasn`t going with those.
Beside, would love to get a honeycomb grill.
Thanks for the links tho
Mine is an insert. I had to cut out the cross hair and bolt this grill into the original frame. I actually went with this one so I wouldn't have to have it painted.
I thought about doing that. So no paint necessary at all ?
Do you have a step by step DIY ?
You got me back into digging this grill again haha
You have a 2003 right?
For the 12's they are $1250-1800.

You are correct
How do you install these insert grills? Thanks
Here are pics of my new RBP RX-1 grille on my 2013 1500. This is the first one, prototyped from my truck, and they should be producing them now. Let me know what you think.

If you get the four panel inserts I think it might not be to difficult. If you do a single panel grill It is a pain. If you have experience with the cutting and bending end of the mechanicing spectrum you should do fine.
I know most of the high dollar grills are way easier to install.
First, You have to remove the entire grill
Separate grill shell from grill
Cut all of the edges off the grill honeycomb so you can reattach it later as your grill uses these pieces to attach to the truck.
Cut out the "cross hair" center of the grill.
Paint the cut edges black
Test fit the grill
Make the necessary bends to the brackets for fitment
Put the grill in the grill frame and somehow get it straight. Once you get it in the perfect spot use your third arm and grab a marker to mark your drill holes.
Curse profusely when the grill pops out as you reach for the marker. Repeat multiple times.
Mark drill and the bolt the grill into the frame. Attach the old grill insert edging to the grill frame.
Put it on the truck.
I like it a lot, but that price is just ridiculous..
Yah, but it was free for me, otherwise there is no was no way I would pay half that for a grille! I took the star off and it looks 10x better! I'll post some more pics soon!
How did you get it for free?!
