My friends and i were discussing the possibilities of it tonight in the gym parking lot. We were thinking of getting a new gmc billit grill and custom cutting it to fit. But i dont like how close the bars are... I like the mercedes type grills better. So has anyone tried this or know where to get a mercedes style grill i could custom cut?? Or should i just paint my grill.. Thats tempting too

That would be sweet! If your going to custom make a grill make sure you buy something that has a lower grill insert for the bottom pieces which could be modded to fit.

Adam,

Did you ever get that new bulb for your HID's? Also, did you try swapping the bulbs from one side to the other to see if it was the bulb or something else? Any other problems?

Hey alex, i havent got the new bulb yet, hogan is getting them in today and is sending me one. Im getting my new fogs today though. Some nice deep yellow ones.. And ya i did switch the hid bulbs around and its definitly the bulb causing the problem, not the housing or ballast or anything.. I looked up billit grills on ebay and they are only like 60 bucks for a huge GMC envoy style grill.. So we may get one and try cutting it to size. Wow that will take forever...

Ill let you know what i do

Adam
