Damn, I actually ordered, both peices off of Grille-tech, and got em pretty quick, but they did say that the lower portion was out of stock. But it didn't take em that long to get them to me. But let me tell you they look bad ass on my R/T. it just mihgt be worth the wait for you. If I get my digital camre back from my gf. then I can send you some pictures just give me your e-mail, and I will try to send them to you sunday night. But the cool part is I got the upper 4 off of ebay. The website was selling them on there. Got the top, for half the price, then just added the lower part to the order, saved on shipping. So check there first. But let me know about the pics.

I just recently bought the SS grill inserts too. They are pretty expensive, but I really like the looks of them.

I'd have to say Drew that looks exactly like mine, guess I don't have to go all vogue on my truck now. I'd have to say that they are the best bang for your buck, expecially when considering those ss grills. They do look really good, but I am to pressed for cash. And besides I really do prefer the grille-tech ones I have now. just my two cents

I got in on the group buy for the grill-tech grilles, i am very pleased with mine. It was exactly two weeks after i ordered when they arrived at the door. I like the way they look and the ease of install. The only thing i didnt like was the cheap hood latch extension they sent with. So i made my own out of a piece of metal and attached it according to the instructions on the grillcraft web site. works just like the fullsize rams release. I would prefer the ss grilles but for more than twice the money i am very happy with what i have, still dont understand why they charge so much.

Gashog, I would have to say that you stole the words right out of my mouth. Especially with that crappy hood latch. I had to rig mine. With the firt couple of turns on the tightening screw, it was stripped. So I wire tied it for now, Think I might weld a Peice of steel to it later. I really don't see why the SS grills are so much, Sure they do look pretty sweet but for those prices, I don't know.

Nood1z; hey, what kind of truck did you put the grilles on? I have a black qc 4x4 and am just wondering how they look on other colors. I got pretty lucky with the hood latch. I was talking to my dad and he told me he could get something. He works for Bobcat as an engineer, he took a piece of scrap metal and smoothed it out and put a couple of holes in the top, then stuck it on the paint line and had it powdercoated black, he even found a little rubber grip for the bottom! I bent it into shape and put it on, looks like a stock piece now.

I have a 99 Deep Amethist R/T. Looks great, expecially with the clear corners, I would have to say that after I put it all on, My truck actually looked meaner. Or, R/T-evil, as I like to call it. But I can't say I was that lucky with the release. I just took the one they gave me and wire tied it to the stock release, Kind of a temporary fix till I fid something more permanent.

Stay away from GrillCraft. I installed them last December and within a month they were rusting. The company was very good tho. They refunded my money no question asked.
