LMC Grille Chrome or Silver
 
Hey guys, long time no see and even longer since I was here actively.

After many steps and changes in life, the '72 has effectively made semi-permanent residence in my garage, guarded on 3 sides by a pop-up, boxes, and... junk. While this setup has been mostly successful from keeping little hands and garage projects away from the truck's bubble, today I was betrayed by the floor jack. The handle on that little bugger fell over and knocked out a chunk of the egg crate through the truck cover. Many words were slung, but alas, the damage was done. So, I return to the forum I dedicated many an hour to many a year ago.

As I already know this is a repo inner grille I got from LMC, I was going to recreate my steps and order the same. Now I can't remember if I ordered the silver or the chrome and can't seem to find a good representation of each. Do any of you fine people have pictures you could share and help me out?

Thanks all!

mmm...ever thought of gluing it back together?

If you have all the parts, its not too tough...just need a lot of patience...

Then just spray it silver...

I have done this a few times with good results...

Call LMC, they may have records of what you ordered...

Another reason to put on a grill guard!

My dad is convinced me putting on an original grill guard (brush guard) will "make the truck look ugly." I am sure people won't care that much and that terribly fragile "egg crate" needs all the protection it can get!
