Denali Grille Help

[FrankJB]

I have a new 2011 GMC Sierra SLT CC 5.3 AFM,20" Wheels,White Diamond Edition. This truck came with the Denali grille which is part of the appearance package. I want to buy and install the lower Denali grille that would go in the lower front bumper valance where the tow hooks are. I have read on an E-Bay site that I would need to purchase ane entire bumper but would rather have some concrete info from you guys.I looked at some aftermarket ones and they are pretty cheesy looking IMO.Great site here w/lotsa info. Would really appreciate some help.Thanks in advance.

I doubt your truck came with the denali grill, you likely got the chrome grill with the strange weave in the center, I could be wrong but I doubt it. To put the lower denali grill on you do need to buy the lower plastic portion of the bumper for it to work

Thanks for the info,what would be the difference between a Denali grille and the chrome grille with the strange weave? Was told the White Diamond Sierras received the Denali grille. I guess the dealer took me.

The 2 pics are good illustrations of the difference in the grilles,the Denali grille seems to be flat with a different pattern and the grille I have on mine is curved across the middle. Both are nice grilles but I was interested in something for the lower section.I think you are right though I would need the lower valance from a Denali to make the lower section fit. Thanks for the info and the pics.
