Need new Grill for LTZ - options?

[Ezekiel2517]

Yesterday I received a Rough Coutnry 30" light bar to mount behind the grill of my LTZ max tow.  It has no active shutters so it should have been easy.  However, in my creative impatience, I eneded up butchering the grill while looking for options and never found one.   Rough Country 30" = no go on this truck.    Oh well.  So now I need a new grill, or at least the back part where the vents are.  I never really liked this big chrome thing anyway, but also am not crazy about spending a fortune to fix it.  The T-rex grills look awesome but not gonna pay $1200 for a grill.

 

So options?  There is a black grill on GMs website and all the parts websites that looks like it fits an LT.  It says it wont fit my tuck, but when I try other models, apparently it doesnt fit ANY truck.     The website does not get specific enough as it asks what model I have.  It defaults me to grill with a camera, that I dont have.   I wouldnt mind "unchroming" this thing some more.

The biggest problem with this grill is the insanely high shipping costs!  Holy crap.  I wonder if I could just order it from my local dealer.

 

Or the ebay raptor looking "Hevrol" grill.  Has anyone actually tried that one?  It looks interesting.  Just dont wanna try it if its a total hunk of crap.

I have am OEM LTZ grille in case you decide to go back with same one.  Just let me know.

Hey man I installed that black grille on my LTZ no problem.  I see you're in Houston, so am I, I order my larger items from https://www.chevroletpartsdirect.com/ .  That's actually the online parts for Parkway Chevrolet in Tomball, I just put in the comments that I want to pickup in store, and they don't charge me any shipping.  Usually in the shipping address I will put their dealership address, that way they don't accidently ship it to me, and I will give them a follow up call once I've ordered.  They are really friendly, and their prices are pretty good.  They will not give you the online price if you walk in to the counter, you have to buy online.

I'm near Shreveport, LA.  Where are you?

 

Retail on this LTZ grille (part # 84493321) is $1,025.00.  Around half that sound ok?

I have an illuminated gold bowtie kit too if you want to add that while you have it apart. 

[Ezekiel2517]

Thanks.  I'll let you know.  Are you in houston?

If you go back with the regular grill, check out the Rough Country dual
10 inch light bar. It goes on like a factory option.

I have the  "Hevrol" grill installed. No fitment issues and the amber's work great, comes with a harness / relay setup.     I'll sell you mine if you want one. Its painted Gloss Black.  I'm trading my truck in so I'm putting it back stock.

Found an LT grill locally for $300.  I think I like the less chrome.  Did what I should have done originally and installed the rough country insert LED slime lights.  They aren't as bright as my old double row 30" bar from Infinite Offroad but they compliment the LED lights on the LTZ well. They add a lot more spread.
